Hi,

Currently I am in India. I was in US earlier for couple years (till Oct'11).

Expecting company X will be ready to sponsor me under next year H1B quota.

1) I know it depends on lot of things, but trying to understand from your experience or you know, what is the tentative processing time for fresh H1b under quota?

2) Can we expect the approval (if no issues from sponsor) by early Sep'13 if we file in Apr'13? what is the probability (percentage)?

3) Can we file fresh H1B under cap/quota with premium processing (PP) in Apr'13?

3a) if yes, is it advisable?

4) In case if I need to be ready by validility start date 1st Oct'12, which option is better?

i) File H1B (Cap/Quota) with PP in Apr'13

ii) File H1B (Cap/Quota) with Regular Processing in Apr'13 and If NO status change by Aug/Sep'13 then convert it to Premium Processing.

Thanks,

Ramesh
