Hi everyone
My Case is as follows:
1.Applied for H1 - Masters quota on April 27th.
2.Actually recieved degree on may 11th
3.Got reciept # and RFE
4.Employer sends degree certificate and transcript to support my application.
5.H1 rejected as I had not completed masters dgree.
6.Obtained letters from school stating that
"I have completed ALL my degree requirements by April 24 and I am waiting to to formally recieve the degree at the cermony on May 11th"
7.Motion to reconsider sent, waiting for reciept #.
Couple of questions:
1.The USCIS has mentioned in the Rejection statement that I can appeal, nowhere "motion to reconsider" was mentioned. The USCIS website also mentions that appeal and motion is different. If so how? In my case can a Motion be filed as opposed to a appeal?
2.What should be my realistic expectations and time frame for such cases?
3.Is it a possibility that USCIS replies stating that H1 quota is over hence decision of rejection still stands?
Can you please help in this matter...I have been trying to make sense out of the whole thing..
thanks
