DamienMartin Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 Hi All, Got receipt number today, checked the status it was in "Initial Review". But later in the day, it got changed to "Acceptance" with the below message On September 29, 2011, we received this I129 PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER and we e-mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. This case is being processed at our VERMONT SERVICE CENTER location. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283. I am concerned now, is this an RFE ? or has someone faced the same issue before.
Siva.M Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 Dear Damien, Nothing to worry, it is not a RFE. If you got your Receipt # today it will be in Acceptance for couple of days. In my case it jumped from Acceptance > Decision with in 5 working days.

DamienMartin Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Posted October 7, 2011 My H1 got approved today 10/06, thanks a lot for everyone who replied in this thread. I am really happy now.
DamienMartin Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Posted October 7, 2011 Since my H1b got approved through COS, do I have to resign from my current company immediately?
pinni Posted February 2, 2012 Report Posted February 2, 2012 Thank you for all your comments- it had really helped me. As for me:USCIS had received my H1b Application on Nov 18, 2011(regular process).Case status was Inital review... I waited for two months and I decided to upgrade to premium processing. Jan 24, 2012 USCIS updated my case to premium and my case status was Initial Review.... On Jan 25, 2012 case was updated to Acceptance. and on Feb 2, it went to post decision - saying it has been approved.
harishcr Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 USCIS recieved on 05-SEP-2011 Normal processing(H1 Extn after 7th yr completion) Approved on 17-JAN-2012 Still didn't recieve the I797, anyone in the same situation? For those who recieved it, how long did it take to get the I797, were they sent to Attorney/company or to individuals?
