I am an Advanced Degree applicant. My lawyer has put my status start date as Aug 15 and then he is saying that it has been a mistake on their part. The start date needs to be Oct 01, 2006 for H1- advanced degrees as well. He has made the company file another backup application which could not reach VSC in time.
I cannot find anything on the web to corroborate him, so I guess he has screwed up something else. We have not received any info from USCIS as yet (20 days have passed since app reached VSC)
My company is about to take my case to another law firm. But I am worried about my case's final decision.
Can anyone check if the start date needs to be Oct 01 2006? Other Advanced Degree applicants, please check with your lawyers. And will USCIS reject my application just because one date was wrong? Or will they simply grant the status from Oct 01 2006?
Thanks,
