Processing time for H1b - Motion to Reopen

USA H1B Visa
1

I have applied H1b visa in premium processing on April 2012(in masters quota) and i received the query regarding employee employer relationship
since My client never willing to give the client letter or email conformation/letter. USCIS have rejected my visa on June 2012.
and using some email conversations at work and some supporting documents i have applied for MRT (motion to reopen) on July 27th 2012. and 30th July they send the new WAC number. Its been almost getting 6 months but no reply, the tracking in USCIS website still showing as Initial review.

USCIS website states MTR takes usually 3months(90 days) 



Does anybody are in my case and any luck in getting Approvals ?

I remember seeing few cases in the main blog where MTR was adjudicated within 1-2 months, but in general in can take up to several months. I would suggest to not rely entirely on MTR’s outcome and start planning for next cap-year as well. If MTR is decided in your favor, then you are all set; else you have a back-up plan.

I am in the same situation now.

  1. Did you file MTR and get new receipt number?

  2. How soon did you get the new receipt number if any?

  3. What was the status of Orginal H1B petition number when MTR was in progress?

  4. Was your MTR approved? If so how long did it take?

Hello!
My H1B FY 2019 was denied on Oct 2, 2019. We filed a motion (MTR), received at oct and then transferred to another USCIS office on November 20. At this date no news. Anyone with similar or same situation can share some light here, please.
I´m out of the US because of this, just waiting for a response. Stay safe!
