Did any body receive their H1B packet back from USCIS indicating that their case was not picked in the lottery.
I have filed my petition under advance degree and premium processing. I still haven’t received my receipt yet. I have started to think that my application might have been rejected in the lottery process.
Also, how long does USCIS usually take to send the rejected petitions back to the lawyer?
in 2008, when lottery happened, it took May end to send receipts for all the lottery selected petitions… if petition is rejected, we would know by mid may as per what Ihv heard…
How about premium processing? I have done premium processing for my petition and my current OPT would expire june ending. Since i did premium processing i am expecting to know some decision by april ending giving me enough time to apply for extension.
If USCIS delays till mid may … it will be difficult as my opt expiration date would be approaching.
Hey I am in the same boat, AD PP… Not heard yet anything. I have heard they have kept some applications as wait list, just in case if any selected approved H1s are ineligible… So I think, we can be wait listed… Be positive, they cannot let skilled labor go unselected… And for PP we will come to know by April end…
