Dallas Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

7th year H1 stamping at New Delhi

Gurus, Need some advise please!
My 7th year H1 expires on Feb 27, 2006 and I have a visa interview at New Delhi Consulate in early Jan 06. Since the interview date is so close to the H1 expiry date, is it too risky to attend a H1 visa interview in New Delhi, India for my 7th year extension?
My 8th year extension has already been filed in mid october and I don't expect it to be approved by the interview date in early Jan 06.
I have a dire need to travel to India in Jan. I tried to attend the interview in Toronto but could not make it for the interview in the last minute due to some unavoidable circumstances. Just a bit concerned now that the interview date is so close to the H1 expiry date. Although I shall be carrying the receipt notice for my 8th year extension as a proof that my employer is still interested in retaining me, I am a bit tense. Any input from experts will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I think my case was moved to Dallas BEC, Is this same with you. And where can we get this information. Unfortunately my employer does not provide me with much of the details. And on what bases is BEC handling the cases, may be I'm asking a foolish question. Is it on the bases of filing date (or) the date the BEC received it (or) the state in which the LC is filed. Please let me know if someone about this.
 
Congrates ravib. I am sure will not have these many pain in your later statges. Good luck.

I received a letter from BEC Dallas stating that while they were reviewing my case they lost two papers ETA-B or TEA-B which ever needs my sign and they want One of the page singed by me for futher review.
It seems that they started loosing papers while boxing the files.

Thanks justdoit!
BUt in your case, you had at least 15 months remaining on your 7th year. But, for me, I 'll only have 1.5 months remaining. Thats what I am concerned about.
 
Approval

I heard about one approval from MI..dec2003 PD.

45 day letter received sometime in sept.

don't know other details.

That was a typo. I meant Mar 2006. So, I had less than 5 months remaining.
Either way, I dont think it should be a issue.
Make sure your passport expires atleast 6 months after interview date.

Congrats psc. I have requested some update from our company lawyer. Still waiting.
 
Is there any way to get the status of the case from DBEC. I saw someone saying "screen shot". What is that?
 
Who maintains that?- nriweb.com

I never visited that site before, but that site shows my information with this portal userid. any Ideas who maintains that or they simply stole the data from here. May be we all could find our data there without our knowledge.
