Not responding to a H-1B RFE, will this affect any immigration related applications in the Future?
My friend has an H-1B approved from Company A, and an H-1B RFE from Company B. He does not wish to join Company B now, and so the Company B do not wish to respond to that RFE.
The approved H-1B from Company A has COS (Change of Status) and he is on Cap-Gap until September 30th and then will be on H-1B status from October 1st.
If the company B does not reply to the RFE within the time allowed (87 days), USCIS will abandon and deny the case. If the case is abandoned and denied, will this affect his COS which is approved with the Company A
H-1B approval?
If the company B withdraws the petition in response to the RFE, again will this affect his COS which is approved with the Company A H-1B approval?
Also will the withdrawal or not replying to RFE (abandoned or denied case) affect any of his immigration related applications in the future like H-1B transfer, H-1b extension, Green card application.
Awaiting your reply.
Thank you.
