  • How long does it take to get receipt after applying for H1?

    My friend's employer applied for H1 on the last minute. The documents reached USCIS exactly on April 7th 2017. (The last day).

    Q1. Will the application count or was it too late?
    Q2. Also, how long does it typically take to get the receipt for H1 so he can start tracking for updates?

    More Info: He is on OPT and this is the first time he is applying for H1. He can extend and continue to work on OPT even if the H1 lottery fails.

      1. Cant say for sure. Check with the mail services as to time when the application was delivered. If it was before the close of business of USCIS on April 7th then yes, it would have been part of the lottery.
      2. Generally withing 2-4 weeks of lottery.

      This is my opinion not legal advice.
