Reaffirmed h1b petition mumbai

[Vivekb333]

My h1b petition was reaffirmed by USCIS on 23rd April 2012 & after receiving the soft copy of i797c i had send the same to mumbai consulate & also rec'd original i797c from my employer.

After continuous followup with mumbai embassy, i rec'd the email from embassy stating that the consulate will contact you once they receive the reaffirmed petition from USCIS.

What does this mean ??

Pls help

As per my knowledge, Consulate has to receive the same about your status from USCIS.Becoz, Consulate is the one who requested USCIS to reconsider your petition. Also, your PIMS data also need to be updated. then only consulate will ask you to come back for interview with reaffirmed petition. All this take a while.

@CodeVISA

Any idea how long PIMS data takes time to update ,almost it is more than 2& 1/2 months

Is there a way out where my sponser can approach to expedite the process ?

I would suggest, write an email again to the VFS stating that you received the re-affirmed petition. Also your employer can get in touch with the USCIS or the Consulate (themselves or thru the Senator respectively) to check if the consulate has recvd the PIMS.

As per my knowledge it shouldnt take more than 1 to 1 1/2 months or at the max 2 months for the same. This is based on my experience reading people's posts on the same.

Good luck & hope you get the visa..
