Topic: Any News on the H1B applications filed on Apr 01 2008
Hi we are on the same boat, I tried to get in touch with my lawyer earlier and they told me, its really hard to predict if it was selected or not, but they said, they had also stopped receiving receipt notices, but they havent gotten the petiton back either,
They also told me that it could also probably on the waitlisted. So we should wait until we receive the official result from USCIS. Hopefully, it will be soon
|
Hello
pls help me...
do you have any information about the H!B lot under general category? is it over?i did nt get any receipt number yet..
.does it mean that i am rejected?
|
yes.no one is receiving any more receipts.i did not get mine as well.got unlucky for two years in this h1b lottery.the rejections come last.so who ever has not heard so far will get the rejection news soon.prepare urself & move on to next plan.
|
I am eager to know the result of lottery FY 2009. Still i didn't received any letter or a receipt number. Please let me know where do i find the result, that i am selected or not.
|
Please tell weather anyone are getting their receipts for advanced degree quota even now? I didn't receive my receipt till now. Is there any hope...or Did anyone got their petition back under advanced degree quota?
|
I found that we have to wait for receipt upto 2nd June 2008. If we are selected in lottery system then we will get the receipt till 2nd June else they we return back the amount.
|
Hi,
I got the EAC number last week. But the case is showing as pending
|
Eesh74,
Congratulations !
I recommend to all the people that got receipt notice, like you, to post the cases in trackitt.
|
Just got my case approved (new H1B) under the masters quota. That was fast!
|
One of my friends' H1B was approved (master's cap) on 05/06
3 of my friends got their H1 receipts (ND: 4/22, 4/24, 5/1) - Regular processing - Case Pending!
Hope this helps!!!
|
Hi...
I am very much worried about my H1B. My employer has filed my H1B on 1st April under Masters quota and I still haven't heard anything yet. He says that this time waiting list is also there so you might get it but now, it is very less chance to get through.
Anybody is having the same problem?
thanks,
bijoy
|
yeah even i have not received any receipt. I have applied for H1B Visa(General).
|
I have applied for H1B (Regular) and i got the receipt number last week. What is the different between premium processing and general? Is the PP will get some advantages than general proccesing? I just curious why we need to spent $1000 for the PP...
|
Friends,
I haven't received any news from my laywer regarding my H1 status. So tense... I would like to know how many approvals have been issued by USCIS and how many left for the 2009 cap?. One more thing plesae get clear me what is waiting list.
Plesae get beck me soon.
|
My H1B was petitioned without premium processing and nevertheless they approved it within 15 days. Theoretically everyone who applied with premium processing should have received the approval by now. This is because the applications were selected on April 14th by the random selection process and they had 15 days from the selection to process the petitions.
|
Hi everbody, i had applied for premium processing and up to now my lawyer told me that she hadn't received any receipt yet. My check was already encashed last april 15 but up to now more than 15 days, no information yet on the result. Can anyone from last years lottery applicants share with us what happened to them after the lottery especially those that had the same problem as mine.
|
Genmilf,
In the back of the check should be your receipt number.
Then you can check the status on line in the USCIS website.
Good Luck!
|
thank you for your information regarding the receipt number trs80, i will check it online
|
hi trs80, i tried to check the back page of my check but there are no 13 digit number at the back but it was stamped by the uscis
|
Hi all
Our Future –decided by a Lottery!!!!
I have applied through PP until now no news,
My lawyer said, “We are inclined to believe your Petition may not have been selected in the lottery”
Any luck
|
Hello
May I know anyone, who is MS candidate and havn't got any news? I am still waiting for any news. I filed under ms quota
|
Hi all,
Do any of you know of anyone who has received a letter of denial/returned cheque from the USCIS for a H1B petition that failed to pass the lottery? I have applied under general quota, regular processing. Haven't heard from the USCIS yet.
Ref:
"USCIS will return unselected petitions with the fee(s) to petitioners or their authorized representatives."
Thanks.
|
People relax!
USCIS need first to validate all the applications selected in the lottery.
If some of these applications fail because: missing/wrong information in the forms, fraud (double filing will be denied), lack of supporting documentation, wrong filing fees, returned checks, and more reasons. They will take some application from the no selected group.
Also there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Check this:

Hi...
My H1b visa has been filed on 1st April, 2008. I haven't heard anything yet from my Lawyer/employer about the lottery results for my case.
Is there any other way of getting to know, whether the case has been chosen in the lottery?
Please let me know if there is any way.
Thanks much!
|

|

but status shows only pending
any body have answers
laila
|
your application has been selected in the random lottery.
all Premium applicants should have recieved their receipts by now. if not then your application hasnt been selected.
Non premium applicants can still expect reciepts.
|
Any idea, till when the non-premium applicants can expect the receipt notice??
Any last date?
|
I have applied for regular quota Non PP...Do I still stand a chance to make through.... is the USCIShas stopped issuing recipt notices.... as one of my friend ( masters Quota..non PP) whose cheque has been encashed but he also hasn't recieved the recipet notice yet what does that mean...are there people who still waiting under regular wuota
|
we are all here same as you.. these are the words for us...
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity, but keep your eyes open..
|
People
PP: nothing received then you are not selected think of something else
Regular: some may still have some chance
Waitlist (don’t rely on that)
Good luck
|
Hi
My H1b application is current pending with USCIS. My OPT (non STEM) will expired in the middle of May. Am I elligible for automatic extension. I have email USCIS with the change of status request but I am kinda worry about my status.
Any advices ?
Thank you
|
My immigration lawyer said he stopped receiving approvals a few days ago, and that he hasn't received any rejections yet. Neither have any of his colleagues (this is a very larger firm). This means that you most probably didn’t make the cap this year. (neither have I) :-(
|
Hi Everyone,
My emlpoyer filed my H1B visa for FY2009 under regular quota i.e non MS from US.
I havent still received any information that whether my case has been selected in lottery or not. Can i still hope that my case was picked up in lottery because i can see people with MS degree from US under premium processing or non premium processing are still receiving the receipts. And i think after these people , regular quota will start. Is it correct?
Clp
|
At this point almost all the approvals were sent, so your chances are not great
there is always a possibility that your file is delayed a bit because of some unclarity, because the USCIS centers try to balance their workload by transferring applications internally and this adds a few wait days, but I wouldn't count on it
|
But u know my employer mailed on 6th may , please see below what he replied:
"Since the receipt notices for winners (General Quota) will also be sent out by June 2, 2008, considering the mailing time, you will not learn whether you made it probably until the end of first week of June or the second week of June 2008! Thus unfortunately, you should keep holding your breath for another month.
I will let you know the moment I get any update. Please have patience!!"
This is what i got in mail. So God knows what is happening and what is the final result. But as u said chances are very slim, i m getting disappointed :(
|
They say that the recepits will be sent by June-2, but in fact they do the approvals first and the rejections last. I heard of many approvals and not even one rejection, this menas that your (am my) chances are not great. You will have to wait for a week or two after June 2nd to know "for sure". I'm in the same boat by the way...
Don't be dissapointed ;-) time to go back to graduate school, get an MA in cinema studies or something dumb like that, get another OPT and then be eligible for the Master's quota. By then they will probably change the law anyway...
|
Hi clpb2,
My case has been filed under Masters Quota (non premium), Can I still expect a receipt? Do u know anyone who received receipts this week? Please let me know, I am really tensed.
And regular quota is already started, but many are still waiting.
|
Hi Kcha,
I know everyone is sailing in the same boat but only through forums i got to know that people from Masters Quota (non premium) are still receiving receipts, yesterday only one person received it. I know this wait is killing everyone and i believe USCIS is sending receipts both to Masters and regular people randomly. So don't know what should people like you and me expect...other than just praying to god!!!
|
june 2 will not get us any luck either.... speak to ur employer and look out other ways... this is my second time i wasn't picked up in the lot though the employer filed my paper is reputed through out US... my employer was mocked than me.. we have to be gamblers to be picked up by h1 lot... moreover, treatising this topic is a stupid way of time squander...
|
I hope this puts some of you at peace. I got my receipt 3 days ago, don't loose hope, good fortunate to the rest of you.
|
Masters quota,Vermont Center, regular processing - recvd receipt notice April 24th.Received Approval notice May 15
Good luck every one.
|

Still waiting Approval Receipt... consultant said LIN will be sent may be end of this month...waiting.

|
