Hello everyone,
I submitted my application for H1B on April 26th, but the receipt date is May 9, 2006. Since I didnt hear anything from them and it was nearing end of September, I applied for premium processing on Friday. It reached the USCIS on Friday at 10.51am. However, I read alot of posts where they say they will give an answer within 15 working days. So I am wondering how serious this 15 day deadline is. 15 working days takes me to October 19th. They also havent notified my employer or sent me a new EAC number. I am very confused and scared. My OPT expired on September 5th, so with the grace period I have till NOvember 4th. What does everyone think. Please help me out and reply to me so I can sleep at night. What I want to know is, will I have an answer on my status by October 19th if its premium processing??
Thank you.
Cheryl
