I applied for H1b visa through an employer. Got receipt number by Apr 23, 2009. Still the online status it says case received and pending. I am worried.
Now I wish to apply again through another employer.

My doubt is :
How long will USCIS continue to accept H1B applications for 2010?
Will they stop accepting after OCT 1st or do they still accept until the quota finishes?

I have a question and hoping someone will give me advise. My H1B was received april 20, 2009 under vermont service center until now my status is still pending and I called my lawyer that He still didnt receive any approval nor RFE.. Would you think is it advisable to pay 1000 dollars to have it premium processing or do i just have to wait at least before october for the result. Thank you very much.

Not finding your Case Status Online?

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) National Benefits Center (NBC) Liaison Committee has identified that there is a problem with the interface tool for the “Case Status Online.” Not only has this problem caused much delay in the recording of new receipt numbers in the system, it has hampered the updating of status information for those cases already in the online system. The Liaison Committee stated that the issue was not limited to NBC filings, and that the problem has been recurring. The NBC Liaison Committee did not provide a time estimate of when they expected the interface to be fixed.

My case also says “request additional documents”. My employer has sent additional documents long time back but still no answer. I applied in May 2008. Did anyone got approval after such a long time?? Please comment.
Thanks

Hi Raghu,

My status is still case recieved and pending. The Employer is under scrutiny.
In this case would i be permitted to apply for H1 2009 quota in April. Irrespective of previous case staus is it allowed to file new applcation ?

My friend submitted H1 visa transfer for almost 15months back for one of the employers but the status is “Case Received and Pending” (fortunately he didn’t took up the employment with them).
Why USCIS take such a long waiting time and for what information they are waiting for?
Are there any legal procedure to move this case up to get some solution?
If some one answer those questions will really helpful for many of them.
