Hi guys,

I applied for the H1-B extension and my receipt date is June 11.
I am still waiting.
My H1-B expires at the end of October. What happens if I don't hear from INS by then. Am I allowed to stay in the US ? Am I allowed to work since I filed for an extension?

Thank you all
 
no problem for H1 b extension

As far as I know you are okay, since you have applied for extension before your current H1B expiration. I think this is okay both for extension and transfer. but dont take my word, consult your attorney. Good Luck

Tanveer45,

Same as yours...

My case is also filed on July 10th @ VSC for my H1b Extention.
No Approval Yet, recently i called Immigration Information Officer at VCS , she told me that one Officer reviewed my case on 10/26 and he has to take decision.
You know some approvals from my company which are filed Sep 19th( Normal Processing), but it is Change of Employer H1 B.

Is this your H1B Ext.. from same employer? Please post the Answer for this Question.

Good Luck...
 
ACTUALLY MY FIRST THREE YEARS ARE EXPIREY ON 7TH NOVEMBER BUT I HAVE FILED THE H1B1 EXT FROM ANOTHER EMPLOYER AND I AM WORKING FOR THAT EMPLOYER

SINCE THEN I HAVE NOT HEARED FROM INS . AND THE WEBSITE SAYS THE SAME THING ITS TAKING BETWEEN 60-120 DAYS

I THING IT DOES NOT MATTER THAT ITS FOR THE SAME EMPLOYER OR NOT THE THING IS WEATHER IT COMES UNDER CAP OR NOT

I REQUEST ALL THE GUYS PLE REPLY ME DID ANY BODY GET ANY REPLY FROM VERMENT FOR H1B1 EXT FOR THE CASES FILED AFTER JULY 19 2002 .(REG ---- PROCESSING)

120 days is out for a while

Here is in the same boat with you, guys.

Looks like something going wrong with our cases in INS.
 
Same here. 120 days has passed. I think this is happening to some cases. The VSC dates show that they are processing H1-B Ext. for September now.
