Ishwar,
If the application was done in good faith, that means they want to hire you so it is in their interest to make sure the application is filed. Also, if you paid for the lawyer it would be malpractice not to file. So I don't think you need to worry about wheter the application was filed or not.
It will take USCIS some time to register all the applications and send out either receipt notices or letters informing you that that you were not picked in the drawing if you are unlucky. Ask your friend if you can get a copy of the receipt notice with the case number once he gets it. That way I am sure you will either of the two letters USCIS will send. Note again though that it might take a while since USCIS has over 100,000 applications to go through and register.
Who cut the check to USCIS for the fees? If it were you, you can see when it gets cached, or if it is returned to you. If the lawyer or the company cut the fee check, and they were paid by you, it would be theft if they don't give the fee money back to you if USCIS returns the checks if you were unlucky in the lottery. I don't think the attorney (or your friend) would dare to do that.
Good luck! |
