Most of the readers following H1B Visa 2010 related updates her at HSB have applied for H1B approval through Regular Processing ( or Normal processing). Most of their comments right now is to find when will they get their receipt numbers. Here is the email from one of the reader
H1B Regular Processing Receipt Number
I am going crazy waiting for my receipt. Do you know if receipts for normal processing are all sent out already? I am trying to check all comments but its hard as people comment on more than one post. I will be thankful if you could tell me something in this regard. Thank You!
There are many other comments asking if USCIS is issuing receipt number only for Regular processing applications applied in Masters Cap Quota. If you have the receipt number, then it will be much easier to check the status oh H-1B Visa petition using USCIS case status online. You can also sign up for automatic updates, so when your H1B Petition status get updated, it will send you automatic email.
Here are some of comments from readers who applied through regular H1B processing and received receipt numbers

I got the receipt notice from VCS 3 days ago. I applied through regular processing and under advanced degree cap.
Viv on April 23/2009
i applied for the h-1b visa using regular processing and got my recipt number a few days ago. got my notice of approval of H-1B visa yesterday. so i saved one thousand dollars. therefore, using the premium processing was just like throwing away $1000. good luck to everyone else in getting approved.

I got receipt number on 18 th april by regular processing

Hi, I have received my receipt today (Masters, regular processing, VSC) but not approved yet.
I am working for Nortel networks and my manager gave me a shock that I would be laid off next week. Can I transfer my H1B to any other company with the receipt number. What are the chances that my transfer would be approved if I apply through a consultancy?? Can any please let me know how this would work or any advice..
So, applicants are receiving receipts numbers for H1B Visa petitions applied through regular processing. If you haven’t received your receipt number, keep following others comments, that will give an idea of whats going on with others. There is no 15 day limit like premium processing for regular H1B processing. It can take upto 6 months to get approval. Paying additional $1000 definitely has its advantage. Usually it will take 3 months to get H1B Approval.

Hi , I have applied for H1b on may 15th 2009, I have not received approval yet. My employer is not willing to disclose the recipt number. Seems my application is taking more then regular processing time. Please advise, what could be the reason for long delay in processing…
I have applied for H1 B in the month of may 2009. When i can expect my recipt No ?
Hello everyone,
I have submitted by H-1B related docs to my employer on 07-AUG-2009. Read from available net sources that USCIS will stop accepting petitions by 01-oct-2009 and will start processing the applied petitions. When I enquired my employer for a tentative date to understand when will I get my receipt number and when will I know my via approval status, they asked me to wait for 90 days to know the answers for all the above queries.
Is there anyone out there to help me out in getting know a tentative date or how long will be take to know the status. I thought that I would be able to know my visa status after 01-oct-2009. Will my application also be picked with other guys who submitted their document before AUG-2009?
Hi,
I have same experience. If you do not have receipt yet means your H1B is not filed yet. If your H1B was filed you will get Notice of Action with status “B” – Pending and you cantrack throug your status using USCIS website. Please ask your concern person to give your receipt and “Notice Of Action” copy. Many people dont file H1B if they do not have appropriate matching job for you as per USCIS rule. You will have still time to wait for another 3 weeks till 1st Oct. Otherwise your H1B is not files damm sure.

can i apply for H2b extension while my H1b on proces? because i do not want to loose the chance for either one. right now im on h2b, seeking extension for next season, in the mean time i filed my H1b as well.
i got the H1b receipt already and RFE after that (request for Evidence) for additional evidence. it was minor RFE regarding TARP. My employer sent the reply of TARP that they dont have any funding from the govt. vailout money. now not sure USCIS gonna approve my H1b or not, i hope they do because they did not ask for anything else, seems like everything is correct. my H1 start day is Oct 1st 2009.
i have H2b in hand till Oct 31st. To go further more after Oct 31 to May 2010 or so extension process started already and need to file by June. although H2b start day is after H1b start day, anytime in NOV or DEC.
what should i do now? my H1b process is done, got receipt and waiting for final result by anytime. H2b extension needed what if i dont get H1b approval. i do not want to be illegal or leave the country right now. is there any chance to get canceled my H1b if i apply for H2b right now while H1b on process?
Note: i filed my H1b as a transfer of status from H2b to H1b.
Please help me…
Is anybody know when the online status will be updated? Last updated information was shown on May 1st in website, Maybe today they will update, who knows?
Do they recognize online Master’s Degrees offered by universities such as STRAYER, PHOENIX for H1B Visas towards MaSTER’S CAP
Yes, they do.
Thanks

Hi there,
I got my receipt number on 8th May 09 through my employer ( Regular processing, non-masters Quota). Till yesterday my case status was CASE RECEIVED & PENDING. But today I got an update from USCIS that my case status changed to REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE SENT. I spoke to my employer regarding this and he says that the attorney will receive a hardcopy of the requested information from USCIS. Basically he is unable to comment on what kind of additional information that the USCIS is looking for. He just asked me to wait for a week. Once they get the hardcopy and incase they need any further information from my end then they will get back to me.
Now Iam worried about this. Are there anyone who are sailing in the same boat? What are my chances of getting an approved H1B visa?
Thanks,
Sandhya.
Hi,
I’m in a strange situation.
I’m currently working on my post completition OPT(expires on Oct-2009) in a very good and established company.My employer filed H-1B for me under bachelors degree, regular processing. But the main problem is, i havn’t graduated till now, as my masters’s thesis is undone. So, now whether there will be any problem with my H-1B. My employer has no problem with the degree.
I’m worried, whether any querrys from USCIS will be there regarding my master’s degree.
Kindly somebody reply me.
Thanks.
The online case status is very inaccurate. Don’t count on it.
My case was approved two weeks back at CSC (premium processing)and still the online section says “case received and pending.” waiting to get it in the mail seems to be the best option.
You are quite right,Hope everybody get approval soon.
i havent received any receipt until now, i am really getting very worried…..
All the best for all the H1 As per my experience all it takes is a bit of luck and complete and true paperwork. If this is the case you are gonna get your H1 approval in 5 Weeks. That the way i got this month. (2 May)(Normal petetion)
My employer told me that they(The USCIS)already collected the money on May 7th, I am confused whether the cheque is cashed or not, Is there anyone with the same situation? becaues my case current status is till pending.
i got my receipt number on MAY 5th but when i check my status it says “case cannot be find online check ur receipt number”.Is there anyone with the same problem
Maybe you input the wrong way, It begins with three letters such as (EAC, WAC, LIN, or SRC). Dashes (“-”) should be omitted when entering a receipt number.Please try again, otherwise It is wrong number, you should check with your employer or lawyer.
Hi to all!
My representative emailed me last May 12, 2009 about my notice receipt. She just gave me the number WACxxxxxxxxx and when I checked it online, my status is “Case Received and Pending”. But she did not send me my notice receipt. How will I know if this number really corresponds to my application? I’ve got a question to those who have received their notice receipt, is your name written on it? Please answer my query, please. Thanks so much.
My employer sent the copy of receipt notice to me, there are many information on it, such as receipt number,case type,received date,notice date,petitoner,beneficiary, law office add, notice type and amount received. another information are receipt notice,processing time,etc. Please ask your employer give you copy.
To HSB rocks

How many days it took to get approval from the receipt date

You got receipt on 4th or April or May.
An , I got my receipt on MAY 4th 2009 and approval on MAY 13th 2009 so basically after 9days. ALSO guys DO NOT TRUST the website,because even after getting the approval notice by mail from USCIS still the website shows “CASE RECEIVED and PENDING”
i haven’t received a receipt until now, pls any updates on who all have not received, i am really getting worried now
Congrats HSB, What was your Receipt Sequence Number ? Mine is (146 Series) EAC-09-146-XXXXX. I am just curios to know what sequence they are processing right now.
No progress for my case till today.
ne one else who is still waiting for receipt … i have got mine yet…
i am still waiting
count me in.. haven’t received mine yet..
had applied thru regular processing… bachelor’s degree and am still waiting….
Hi All…Im still waiting for receipt number… Regular processing.. Can anybody help me how to proceed?
nalls, trisha
did you get your receipts? i haven’t received mine yet. which center did you apply for, Please let me know
ash,bb,sp have you got your receipts?
I got my receipt number , but not yet approved
When I go on the website it’s written
Current Status: Case received and pending.
received date 1 April
notice date 28 April
my employer told me that,all checks are cashed on 3rd may…is that mean they approve my case..???
I am also on the same boat.
Getting receipt means the application is accepted. Processing takes about 2 months after that, they may send RFE in they need further evidence or information.
Finally they would then send the notice of approval or rejection.
I got receipt number on 7TH May by regular processing non-masters. Receipt notice said: received date April 7
notice date April 28
It is still pending.
Hi All,
I got my receipt on May 4th from my lawyer,online it says receipt notice sent on April 27th. Could anyone please tell me generally how much time it takes to get the approval or a decision after getting the receipt. I applied in VSC under regular quota undergraduate.
Thanks!
I guess ATLEAST a month. My Receipt was dated 24th April, So I am hoping to get the result by 25th May. Remember, only 2 Service Centers process NEW H1B cases (VSC & CSC). And they have already received 65000 applications (45000 in General Quota and 20000 in Masters Degree quota). Even if they process 1000 applications each day (though really not possible) it will take them 65 days to clear all applications. Also, they are processing applications alphabetically (1st alphabet of last name) for Non-PP applicants. So if your 2nd name appear somewhat higher on the list your case will be processed sooner than later. So Wait, Relax & hope for the best.
thanks punit and gud luck !
where did you find that USCIS is processing applications on alphabetical order?
The status which we seen online does not show the name of person to which receipt # belongs to. Is there any other way to verify our name?? (I mean will USCIS entertain this query over the phone)
My application is filed on 1st April under regular – bachelor processing
Waiting for receipt number.
Hope everyone will get it.
is there ne one else who does nt get his/her receipt yet… me still waiting
I am also waiting.
i am also waiting, regular quota
I got my receipt number on May 1st. Regular processing, undergrad. Hope everyone who hasnt received will be getting one soon!
still waiting…
haven’t received mine… Regular, non-PP. filed April 1st
Im still waiting too. Told by lawyer that it was filed on the 1st April but still no receipt. Premium processing Standard degree. Very frustrating!!
I will make this as a common question.
Does the receipt # mentioning the current state of application remain the same after the original I-797 (with approval notice) is sent out later in september 2009?
Hey All,
I called USCIS and they gave me my Recipt# on the phone. The only thing is my employer had to talk to them for a minute or so and give his permission. They said that they mailed me the Recipt# on Thursday April 30 but I still haven’t got it.(Case is received and pending, Bachelor, Regular, VSC)
Hey Salem,
Did u directly call USCIS? VSC center? What did u say to them? I had applied under regular processing – non masters at Vermont center but I havent yet got any receipt. I’m worried so just wanted you to give some directions. Do u think they are processing alphabetically?
I called 1-800-375-5283 and chose 1(for english), then 2(for check status of Application), then 3(for lost recipt#). It will take to a customer service. Tell them you applied H1-B and you haven’t got Recipt# yet. They will ask when you applied (it needs to be more than 30 days) and which service center. Then they will transfer you to some other line and the other person will ask you your name and some of the same question. Then they will tell you they can only give info to the employer. Tell them to wait and give your phone to your employer( or a representative of the company). They will ask your employer thier name, Company name, address and federal tax ID #(same thing as Federal Employer ID # on your I-129 form). After that you can take the phone from your employer and you can ask for the Recipt# if you application is already in the system they will give it to you.
Thanks Salem. Your reply is very helpful.
grt i got no news yet
H1B approved !!!
Got the mail today.
Regular/Adv quota.
congrats. I have a question. Does the receipt # remain the same after the original I-797 is sent out later in september 2009?
Thx, remains same
Congrats! after how many days you got approval after getting the receipt??
I got the approval + receipt together.
Receipt Date: April 16, 2009
Notice Date: April 27, 2009
All the best !! Hope for the best.
I got mine today too
. Regular,non-masters quota, case is received and pending. But I have query here, the fedex tracking no which was given to me has a signed approval by USCIS on 1st april, but when I check my status using the receipt No, it says On 24th April, 2009 we received this petition.
Can anyone explain this gap in time??
I think the fedex date is when they got your mailed application and the date on the website is when they actually opened your application and entered it into the computer
Hi All,
I got my receipt today . Case received and pending. Under regular quota. I am sure everyone of you will be getting receipts and approvals soon. Just waiting for approval now.
My application was filed under regular processing, non-advanced degree. Last Name starts with B. Still have not received any receipt # yet. Anyone in a case similar to mine?
Same here regular processing,non-masters quota. Applied on Apr 1st but no receipt yet
Same here. Regular processing – non adv quota. Didnt recv any receipt number yet
I Just got my receipt number today!!! hope all of you would get it too followed by the approval for all of us
Hi,
I want to know that is it possible that USCIS has issued the Receipt Number but NOT yet cashed the cheques ? I have heard that Receipt Numbers are only issued (by USCIS) after your cheque is cashed. My attorney told me that he has received the Receipt Number for my application and employer told me that the cheques are not yet cashed. I am totally confused ?
Thanks.
I think cheque might take sometime to clear (depends on bank too).
check after few days.
did you check your status with the receipt number?
Yes, I checked the status online with Receipt Number. It says Case Received and Pending. It doesn’t say anything about the cheques being cashed or not ?
then don’t worry about it,it may take a few days.
Hi,
Anybody regular processing, advanced quota still waiting for the receipt number?
Thanks for your response !!
I have not received yet. Waiting for it.

Good luck to you all!
Sanjiv – Update your status in the forum – http://www.happyschoolsblog.com/forum/topic/h1b-2010-tracker
OHH you meant Last name ,then my last name initial in “M” hope i get it soon im very worried!
My last name start with “S”, I got my receipt on 30th April and it was dated 24th April. I filed my application on 1st April.
I hope I receive my receipt notice very soon. I’m also worried. My friends received theirs already. I talked with my employer, and they haven’t received anything fom USCIS yet. I was filed April 1, non-PP, regular quota.
I wish the best for all of us waiting!
hi,
r u with advanced degree / normal processing.
I got my receipt # today, but the website doesn’t seem to recognize it yet. Is this normal? Does it take a few days or more until I can check the status online?
No, its not normal, Make sure with your Attorney, that he sent you the correct receipt number. Initially, my attorney sent me wrong receipt number, when I checked the status online it said “Application Type: I-131, Application for Re-Entry received and pending” but my application was not a Re-Entry visa, it was a work visa (H-1B) application. I called my attorney for clarification and he sent me another number. This time it showed correct status.
“Application Type: I-129, Application for Non-Immigrant Work Visa received and pending”
My employer said, he filled my h1b visa application on April/01/09 under regular processing with advanced degree. Till now have not received receipt number. Is it normal for such delay.
Has anyone who has applied in the general quota/regular processing got their receipt?
I just got mine today (Apr 30th), general quota | Regular processing….it took a month….just to send a receipt….wow
how did you get it? by ur lawyer or by employer?
hi
when i verify it does not show any name, how can this be confirmed any idea. are there any numbers?
If Possible, Request your Lawyer/Employer to send you a scanned copy of the receipt USCIS sent to them. If you check the status online, you won’t see your name or employers name.
Hi All,
I havent received y approval yet any idea how long will t take to get approval under regular quota (Not masters).
I got mine on april 23, 2009.
I am not advance.
Is it true that the H1B applications with RFE situations will be sent to California center after they receive additional information?
Has anyone faced such a situation?
Thanks
Raghu
Anyone out there with a receipt notice from GtssInc?
Hi
I have applied for bachelors regular processing. I have not received my receipt number yet. my cheque also has not been cashed. what does that mean.
sp
I am in the same boat as you hope we get the approval/receipt soon!
do u have any idea about how long should it take?
I asked a few people in my company who are on h1 they said to get a receipt under regular processing with bachelors degree it takes about 6-8 weeks phewww!!! but ya i guess we have to wait till May 15th or so.good luck!
thanks for the info, but it seems this year everyone is getting it very fast. we seem to be the minority group.
exactly im concerned too,but you know if you actually look at the statistics not many people under Bachelors degree have got it . They have just started getting it since like last week or so. Probably they go in alphabetical order or something i dont know but we can’t do anything except to wait
but i hope when the news comes its good news 
ya, if its alphabetical i am at the end
best of luck to u, at least there is no lottery this year we can be +ve
guys….i just got mine today….regular processing, gen quota…speaking of alphabetically …i should probably get it first…but it took month for me….I am sure its not alphabetically…dnt worry guys …u’ll get urs soon

Hi Guys
Who had received RFE because of updated H-1B forms (Premium processing)?
Could you please share what happened next (after sending required info to USCIS) ?
Did you get approval notice?
Thanks in advance
Kant – Update your H1B status at the forum http://www.happyschoolsblog.com/forum/topic.php?id=3
I’m interested to know the time taken or the process after we submit the additional evidence.
Does anyone have any idea ,,either regular or premium processing?
Thanks
Raghu.
To HSB,
Could you please add a new topic about processes after RFE. So guys who have questions and/or experience share with each other.
Please see above questions.
As this is not correct place(different topic) to write about processes after RFE.
Sure, I will add it to the FAQ’s and I don’t have the answer yet, but soon, I will find from an attorney.
Thanks HSB.
Hi
Has anybody applied for databaseville llc this year and got the receipt .
@all
Does nybody know about this consulting firm(databaseville in tempa) . Pleasee letmee know if nybody has ny idea
Thanks
Regular processing, Bachelors – No receipt yet. My lawyer says till now they have only received receipts for Masters cap, yet to receive receipts for Bachelors applications.
Same here, My Lawyer also said that as of now, he has received receipts for Masters Degree cases only…. Not sure how much more time they will take to send receipts for Bachelor Degree holders (Regular Processing) ???

Hi,
I got my receipt around 1 week ago, and yesterday the website shows up new updating which is “Request for Additional Evidence Sent”. I wonder do they request additional evidences from me or company side and how high is the percentage that I will get rejected because of this Request for Additional Evidence?
thank you
did you apply under master’s quota or undergrad/regular?
yeah, my H1B is under advanced degree cap…
any idea?
See RFE is not an issue as long as you provide legit supporting evidence. You don’t have to worry if you case is straight forward and your company has good records.
Hi,
I has applied under H1B 65000 Quota and yet waiting for Receipt Number. I spoke to my Employer and they said they wont inform the receipt number till it is approved. Is there any way I can know whether USCIS has received my application???
I have applied H1B under regular processing.. have not received my receipt number.. I hear many people have git theirs.. my consultant says they still havent’t received receipt number for any of the H1Bs they have filled.. its something which is bit hard me to digest… I have no option but to wait.. but is there some date after which I should think that i am not going to receive a receipt number and should forget about H1B ???
Ask your consultant about how they had sent ur application. They must have sent it thru Fedex.. It must be having some tracking number. You can check when ur application got delivered to USCIS by entering the tracking number online.
Hi,
I just want to know whether the people mentioned in the post about receiving the receipts have applied under non-masters (65000) cap.
If yes, then through which center?
Thanks for all new updates. They are really helpful.
Did anyone get receipt who have applied in 65,000 quota cap? I heard many of us got receipt who had applied under master’s cap.
Yes I got my WAC # yesterday. It was throught regular processing without Masters Deg…
All the best and waiting for it sapproval.
Hi When u got the recept? Please let me know. I am waiting for Recept for regular quota.Are u applied through regular, without master’s degree?
i got my receipt today, dated april 17. regular, masters’. california.
Good for yall…but I haven’t got mine….regular processing, general category (bachelors)….heck.. my name starts with’A';) …jst kidding m sure it doesn’t go alphabetically
I spoke to my attorny yesterday and she said they expect to get a receipt no in about two to three weeks. I applied through regular processing non-masters.
My question is once they have sent out receipts to all the people that applied under premium processing, do they then do the Master Degree H1B receipts and then after non-masters?
This website is really full of information and I thank everyone for their comments. It really helps me keep up to date with the H1B information.
But what about people who filed under regualar processing under undergraduate (non-masters)quota,anybody here got receipt for that yet?
not yet. it seems like USCIS is processing the adv cap first.
A friend of mine applied under regular processing with undergraduate degree, she has got the receipt notice (case#) and waiting for approval now. I don’t think advanced degree petition goes first.
