H-1 revalidation tracker in St.Louis/Washington

H1 revalidation

help, help!

I sent my H1B revalidation application on Sep/26 via fedex, it was received by DOS on Sep/27. I already booked my flights for 12/11.

I called 202-663-1225, but it's always busy.

Did someone just get revalidated H1 visa?:( :(
 
it takes 6+ weeks, so its about time. You should get it in a week or so. I think there shouldn't be a problem for you to make the 12/11 deadline.

I also got a engaged line a few days ago. If you persist you would get it. Try in the morning .

-good luck
 
thanks!

Thank you for your reply!

Did you speak to the visa officer? and did they tell your visa application status?

Right now, we even can not withdraw our passport. Suck!:mad: :mad:
