I need to clarify a few things as I am trying for H1B for next year. I was looking out for an opportunity and Ark IT services responded back. I discussed the steps and one of the employers was interested in me and I had a Skype interview and I cleared the interview. I shared all the documents as well. Now Ark IT mentioned that I need to pay $1000 as the total H1B cost comes out approximately to $4200 as it is premium filing. The employer which is interested is ready to pay around $3000. And I need to pay $1000 now. If my name comes out in the lottery(they mentioned that there is more than 95% chance as I got a job and it is premium filing) then it is fine. If my name does not come out in the lottery then I will get back 80% of my amount within 48 hours. After I make the payment they will give me the receipt as well as the agreement copy. I have not been able to completely be sure about this. Can anyone help me out on this?
Well I know about that. And they have already mentioned about the same. April 1st 2016 is the filling date and 22nd May 2016 is the result of the lottery. I know that there is no guarantee about the same. They have mentioned that since this is premium process there is 95% chance of getting a H1B visa.
Premium process is for knowing the result of lottery selected petition within 15 days and I am 100% sure it wont increase chances of getting selected inlottery, those guys are lying
I did contact them, they do arrange for sponsorship and not sponsor H1B by themselves ( More like a Consultancy for H1B ). Not sure how this worked out for others in the forum but I got my H1B Picked in 2013, they introduced me to the client and arranged for the sponsorship they only charged me for the processing fees.
I have been through their process in 2014, now i am holding a h1 visa (all thanks to Ark IT Services)
People who say they are fraud…! well i say you are wrong. Do not judge on your own. They are a consultancy and they charge the consultation fee. I was even on a contract with them for couple of months even after my visa was picked, they have given me the best services.
Even I am planning to start the process for 2016. Can you please provide some more details like from which client you got interviewed and how the interview happened (skype or other).
