aniroy4ever Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 My H1B Extesnsion is with California Center for last 6 months (received 23rd June,2015). I am going through regular processing. So I was tracking it very closely. in USCIS site it shows that on 31st Aug it was 25 May, 30th Sep it was 2nd June and the latest update 31st Oct it is only 3rd June....so in one month it moved only one day...Is it the indication that every one has to be filed in Premium processing? Any one got H1B extension approval recently? Link to comment
viru12 Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 My H1B amendment is with California Center for last 6 months (received 17th June,2015) and I received a receipt on 7th July,2015 with the status showing as : " We made the decision to refund the fee for your Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker, Receipt Number WACXXXXXXX. We will mail your refund to the address you gave us. This refund does not affect the processing or location of your case. You should receive your refund within 30 days. " I applied under regular processing , but still now there is now change in the status.. Can anyone please help me where to check in USCIS website, till what date USCIS processed the applications so far. Link to comment
chug1985 Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 I have the exact date as yours in California. Let's hope it comes through! From what I've heard, processing times have slowed because of the holidays and because of the spending deal that's currently being worked out in DC. It should quicken after the holidays.

aniroy4ever Posted December 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 @2nd post........It seems the petition has been filed in Premium processing and during that time the premium processing was suspended for one month. So they are trying to refund the fees... @3rd post....where from you heard these stories? The processing is tremendously slow for last few months.....if you look the statistics you will come to know.... My client location could be changed in January....I think I need to file for Amendment.....my question is that is there will be any issue to file Amendment for client location change while extension is in pending status?? Also Can I file for I-140 while my extension is in pending status? Link to comment
nvedia Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 ..Is it the indication that every one has to be filed in Premium processing? Any one got H1B extension approval recently? Yes USCIS has become shameless in acting this way to get money whatever way possible by forcing to do PP. in this case, so many people have to apply for premium as they are left with no choice (travel plans, 240+ days etc) Link to comment

Even the applications with very poor documentation sometimes gets approved. Link to comment
