cometojeet Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 My application (WAC121735...) was received by California center on June 7th. Still in initial review... Link to comment
Sudhakar0204 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Just wondering, how the USCIS is processing the H1b petitions? Mine is on June 5th - still initial review Another friend whose receipt date is June 6th - Status changed to RFE 2 days back Another friend whose receipt date is May 25th - petition approval on Oct 1st. How come they are randomly processing the applications rather than in a sequential manner? Regards Link to comment
cometojeet Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I think they are giving first preference to fresh H1's and OPT's. Here is what I saw on one of the site (http://*******************) ------------------------------------------ I got my H1B application approved today. Receipt Date – 06/11/12 Approved Date – 10/12/12 Center — Vermont (EAC) Non masters Quota.. Regular processing. --------------------------------------------------- Link to comment

viharik Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hi, I got my RFE for client letter and employment agreement. Unfortunately, i had to change my client and i am no longer working for the client for which we filed for H1. My employer tells me that the chances are tough now and we cannot submit a different client letter. I am confused on what are my chances, any inputs please.. Link to comment

cometojeet Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Your attorney can contact them, as per their web site(https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processingTimesDisplay.do) they are processing June 4 applications. Applicant can contact them if they have filed before that date. Link to comment
numi Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 My receipt date is June 7th and still haven't heard anything. kRAJ - May I know series of your receipt no. like mine is EAC-121-795-XXXX. Just want to see how far it has gone and when can I expect mine. Link to comment
SLGU Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hello Mr. kraj I am able to see the approvals have gone through for H1 extension till May 23rd in Vermont. Found that serial number, approval/rfe dates are gradually increasing as per the application date. a May 14 application - RFE on oct / 4 (EAC12155507xx) a May 22 application - approved on Oct 17, ( EAC12175508xx) a May 23 application - approved on Oct 24. (EAC12175511xx) Please confirm yours h1 extension / new / f1to h1 ? which center? is June 15th is your date? did you convert to Premium Processing? at least a partial case number will help. All others, I feel the last minute rush of new h1 filings that closed on june 11 is impacting h1 extensions... your thoughts? example between may 22 and may 23 extension applications the approval date varied by 1 week. USCIS is trying to take all the following 3 categories together. (forget about the dates here, they do update on monthly basis) I-129 Petition for A Nonimmigrant Worker H-1B - Specialty occupation - Visa to be issued abroad May 7, 2012 I-129 Petition for A Nonimmigrant Worker H-1B - Specialty occupation - Change of status in the U.S. May 7, 2012 I-129 Petition for A Nonimmigrant Worker H-1B - Specialty occupation - Extension of stay in the U.S. May 7, 2012 Link to comment
