Sai_US Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Hi My H1 petition has been applied by my employer as consular notify (option a checked under requested action in i129) as I had plans to travel to my home country during my application processing time. However, because of covid and current situations, I haven't traveled out of US. my question now is on approval, does USCIS give direct approval (COS) [I have been in US, haven't traveled out since the application is launched] or approve it as consular processing. please note my current status is not H1, I am currently on a dependent visa.

User099 Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 If you have not asked for COS and applied as Consular processing then it will be approved in Consular processing. Quote Link to comment
Sai_US Posted June 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 But I have heard from a few people where they applied for consular processing but got change of status approved, what could be the reason. Quote Link to comment

I have not heard of such cases. But I have heard the opposite when there is some issue with the petitioners status then they approve it in CP and deny the COS. Quote Link to comment
Sai_US Posted June 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 thanks for the info. yes when COS is applied but that cannot be given, they issued consular approval in some of the cases I know! thank you! Quote Link to comment
