MrPraveen Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Go for premium processing if you dont want to handle this anymore, you will definitely get the result soon Link to comment
manojjayam Posted February 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Thanks MrPraveen and Jairichi .... but opting for premium processing is not possible as my company has a rigid compaliance rules which means the premium processing cannot approved in most cases and if needed our CFO has to approve it and approving timelines will mirror USCIS timelines ..... I am in kinda of in between devil and deep sea :) ... Is it normal that USCIS takes so long ...... Link to comment

I am not allowed to pay as ours is a law abiding corporate citizen and immi dept is staffed with US policy concious ppl who follow rule to the hilt even if the client threatens .... I am still waiting btw. Link to comment

rahul412 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 My company is filing a new H1 this year ..... Will thee be any issue as one of the petition is initial processing ... Thanks Is this the same company?? If yes then they can't file multiple petitions for single person. Link to comment
manojjayam Posted February 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 Is this the same company?? If yes then they can't file multiple petitions for single person. Yes it's the same company ..... Last one was a transfer this one is new filing Link to comment
rahul412 Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 Yes it's the same company ..... Last one was a transfer this one is new filing Like I said before an employer cannot file multiple H1's for single employee. Your employer cannot file new H1 this year since they already filed H1 for you. Link to comment
