:mad: I made the quota for H1 in April but am still waiting for my visa. I moved it to premium processing on October 1 but am still waiting (in spite of their 15 days guarantee). Is there anyone else who applied for NEW H1 visa in April and is still waiting? Pls reply with receipt data. Mine...

I had applied for H1 in April and had made the quota. Receipt date is April 27th. My H1 was supposed to be effective from Oct 1st and it was not processed as of October so I moved it to premium on October 1. Its been more than 33 calendar days since it was pushed to premium. There is a...

I moved to premium on 19 October. Have not heard anything from them yet.

I moved my unapproved H1 application to premium abt 2 weeks ago and when they processed it they asked me to send the orignal I-94 card since the photocopy did not show the immigration stamp clearly. I sent it immediately. This was NOT a query, simply a document replacement request. I received...

I moved my unapproved H1 application to premium abt 2 weeks ago and when they processed it they asked me to send the orinal I-94 card since the photocopy did not show the immigration stamp clearly. I sent it immediately. I received notification today that they have received the requested I-94...

I am in the same boat as you are. Fresh H1 was applied with receipt date April 24. Still haven't received H1 approval as of October 13.

My receipt date is April 27 and I have not received H1 yet. Still waiting and waiting...

My receipt date was April 27 and I still haven't received my H1. I moved it to premium processing about 10 days ago and am still waiting.

If you have H1 approved already, you don't need change of status from F1 to H1. You can go to India, and get your H1B visa stamped.

You say "However, I still haven't gotten change of status from F1 to H1B without leaving the country yet." which didn't make sense. The moment you get your H1, you just send a copy to your school which maintains your F1 documents and you are all set. If you applied for H1 when you were on...

I am on F1 visa and have applied for H1 which I have not received yet. But once I get it, I am not supposed to do "change of status" to work. I am not sure what you are doing. Even if you do "change of status" you will still need a visa stamp to enter this country after you leave it. If you...

So you are waiting for your I-94, not H1. Sorry, can't help you there. There are people still waiting for H1 and they applied in April.

Response Was your H1 "approved"? If its approved, then you should be in H1 status from October 1 already. Its a single step going from F1 to H1. Its not that they approve the H1 and then you apply for change of status. I think you meant to say your application receipt was accepted and you are...

Clarification Thanks for your response, some of you may have misread my question. I did NOT apply for an extension. I had applied for a new H1B visa (through my employer) on April 9th. I made the quota because I have a graduate degree from the US. I got a receipt on April 27th and since then...

I had applied for H1 visa in April 2007 and had also received a receipt. The case status on uscis.gov says the following (see below). The processing times for I129 on their web site for my category are 60 days and its been more than 120 days for me. My H1 visa should be effective from Oct 1 2007...

Chances are good that the 20,000 quota will be full once the official count is out. Tens of thousands of applicants who missed the boat last year have applied this year only to be entered into a lottery. You are better off going to Mexico and walking right back in as an illegal immigrant. They...
