Hi Jhonny, I just checked my application status and it has been approved. It took a week to get approval after RFE has been submitted.

Can i know on which web site I can see my online status. I too have the same situation, got RFE. I applied for premium processing. Now waiting for the last 1 week since employer filed RFE request. How many days it take to get response from INS after RFE has been submitted?

Thanks so much for you reply, waitin_toolong! I have one more quick question. Is there any way one can suspend H1 premium processing and get money back, due to some un-avoidable conditions. Will it effect anything? Thanks

Hi, My employer filed my new H1 case through premium processing in mid september. I have the following questions: 1) How long it will take to get my H1 approval from INS. I heard it takes 15 to 20 days, so should I expect to recieve it in mid October? 2) I am a landed immigrant, currently...

Hi, How much is the lawyer fee, educational documents evaluation and INS petition fee for fresh H1 applying. Do I have to pay this all? For premium processing, I know it can take upto 20-25 days to get H1 approval but not the passport stamped but I want to know how much total time it will...

Thanks Matt. How can I apply for an extended stay and for how long it can be? And if I apply for extended stay, then will they allow my stay is US as stay in Canada?

Thanks all for your help. But, I am still confused and double minded whether to go to US on H1 or stay here in Canada until I get my citizenship, because if I move to US, then my time will not be counted and I don't know then how to maintain and continue my residency status in Canada :confused...

Thanks Max. One more thing. I am getting married next year in January, so is it better to get my visa stamped earlier than my marriage or wait and take my wife also to the interview for H4 in my back home country. Which is the better choice. After INS approval, is there any time limit within...

Sorry for confusing, Max. I mean that I can go to Toronto consulate but I heard that if one does not have a US degree and first time H1 getting, then most of the time, cases are seen rejected. Thats why, I was confirming that if this is the case, then should I prefer to go back to my home...

Hi, One more question. If I got approved from INS, do I have to get my passport stamped from Toronto (where I am currently living) or have to go back to home country India. Somebody told me that I have to go back to home country for stamping, and if I don't and went to US without it, then I...

Thanks matt for the info. One more thing I want to ask. If I went to US before my citizenship, will my remaining time count in Canada and do am I eligible to remain outside Canada for that time period? It wil be one year from now when I will get my citizenship. Thanks

Thanks Max for reply. Actually, I am working in Canada for the last 2 years. Now, I got an offer from US employer who wil process my H1. As I am working in Canada on contract basis, my contract is about to finish in the present company, so I applied US. I think it doesn't matter if you have...
