As I said it has been heck of a journey for us. My case was denied because my previous employer withdrew my approved I-140, some ignorant IIO straight away denied my case despite filing of AC21. We were out of country on AP when the denial happened. Luckily I was allowed to enter into US without any problem (after 15 days of denial). The denial mentioned about departing US immediately as I did not have a valid H1 at that time. To add to our grievances, my wife was still in India and we did not know whether she should fly back. We were scared that she might be detained at port or might be debarred from entering into US for 3-10 years. I consulted multiple lawyers and finally decided to take the chance based on their opinion. The only good thing in our case was that it was reopened on the same day we filed MOTIC. INS issued 2FP on the same day and then a RFE for standard stuff. Rest of the details are as given above.

I was surprised to see the email this evening. It has a timestamp of 8:00 p.m. I am glad that this journey is over.

Thanks to all the users and Mr. Rajiv Khanna for providing such a wonderful forum to share the experiences. This Website has been a great source of information for me with all the valuable data.

I know people who filed before us are still waiting but I would say there is still hope. Wish that you all get the approvals pretty soon.
