VO: Did you inform the sevis portal about your H-1B approval ?
Me: I did. ( I had updated the address and employer on SEVP portal)

Handed me a small 221g white slip and told me that they need to do some additional processing. The slip had no check boxes or such. Just some 8 lines of text.

Dec 11 2019: Case updated (around 1 P.M)
Dec 12 2019: Issued (around 1P.M)

Looks like they are giving out white slips for a lot of people who are transitioning from F1 to H-1B. This forum calmed my nerves while waiting. Hope this post helps others on the same boat.

Currently waiting for the passport to be ready for pick up. Hope the passport comes back soon without any problems. Otherwise, I will have to postpone my flight.
