My employer has files for an Extension on 30th May 2013, and the status still shows as Initial Review. I am afraid as it might be I will not a decesion before my DL and Visa gets expired. Kindly Suggest, what steps should I take further. Thanking You ! Regards, BGH Link to comment

omshiv Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Thanks OmShiv, I have asked for that today, hopefully they agrees :) Well...if they are a Desi company..they would want you to pay for the PP..which is around $1200 something. Link to comment
nineballs Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I checked with Them, they said they cant give extend the validity without H1b Aproval, I am stuck.. dnt know what are the other options. The only two options are - Use cab to work or pay $1250 and upgrade your application to premium processing. If it helps, I paid $1000 (Back then, it was $1000) on Sep 20th few years back to get the response on time. USCIS approved the H1-B petition on Oct 1st. Link to comment

It seems PP has to be initiated by my employer, and they has a lot of criterias and approvals for that. Can I approach USCIS to pay that additional $1000 amount for PP.. ? Link to comment

BGH Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Will it work in DMV if My Employer sends a hard copy of the Receipt details filed for my Extension ?Please let me know what are the points that I need to mention while I seek a temporary renewal. Link to comment
livliv Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 First ask to speak with a supervisor. Ask them if they have any system where they can refer your case to USCIS and get information on your status back. Also ask them if they have any method by which they can renew for a short duration (say 6 months). Receipt notice will certainly be necessary. Link to comment
