IS NIE APPROVAL NEEDED FOR H1 OR H4 VISA STAMPING??
First of all Im not getting appointment dates in Hyderabad. Its for my H1 which got approved a week ago. IM reading various posts that even for stamping we need to show NIE approval. I had plans of spending a fortnight in some other country before travelling to US. But if NIE approval is a mandate for VISA stamping itself, Im stuck.Can anyone share the experiences recently if NIE approval is a must for stamping or not?

H1B Petition got approved FY22 - Got 2 questions
Hello All,

My petition got approved on 21st July'21, I am yet to initiate my stamping process. Can someone help me clarifying below questions.

1) As I don't work for a specific client rather work for multiple client as a consultant, my parent company applied my H1 B petition against my companies US entity. Do I have to have a specific client invite letter, is it a must?

2) My second question: My wife works for a Govt. Undertaken organization (PSU) / Govt. organization. She is going to take 2 years sabbatical leave and join me in US, do we have to carry a specific documents proving that she is working for an Indian Govt. Org. and she has an approval to travel to US?

Thanks in advance.

Unable to see service request in H1B case status
Hi All,

An RFE is issued on my H1B Change of Status case. My attorney raised a service request as RFE notice is not received. It has been 10 days since service request is raised. In the past, USCIS site used to show Service request details in the original case but now I don't see the service request details in my H1B case.

Has anyone faced similar situation?

Could you please suggest where else can I check the service request status?

Thanks..

Wrong Date of birth for mother 5 years back in DS 160 - After approval
Hello,

I came to the US on F1 via 5 years back and have realized that I had filled in my mothers' date of birth wrong. my visa got approved with no issues at point in time. I am going for my H4 visa interview soon and wanted to know if i should fill her passport DOB now? (She did not have a passport back then).
Plus will this be a big issue? What should I tell the VO when asked? Will it be considered misrepresentation of facts?

¡estoy desesperada!
El 23 de junio fui a mi cita en la embajada americana con mi hermana ya que estamos pedidas juntas, nos dividieron en familias ya que tenemos hijos, a ella le aprobaron la visa porque estaba todo bien, sin embargo en mi caso, los resultados de los análisis de mi hija no llegó a tiempo, dejaron nuestros pasaportes en la embajada en caso administrativo supongo, los resultados están en su plataforma hace un buen tiempo después de que fuimos a la cita porque llame al laboratorio para confirmarlo, pero ya han pasado dos meses y todavía el estatus de mi caso dice “refused” y estoy desesperada porque ya mi hermana tiene que irse, alguien por favor deme información y dígame cuánto es el plazo de tiempo que se prolonga para que la embajada administre mi caso y me entreguen mis pasaportes ¡POR FAVOR!

Completed 5 years on L1B, got approved in H1B second lottery and petition is expiring
Hi,
I completed my 5 Years on L1 and in 2020 I got H1b petition approved for one more year which is expiring this October 2021. Due to the pandemic and non-functional VISA consulate, I didn't get stamped. What are my options? Can I file a new petition based on the previously approved petition? Do I need to go through the H1 lottery again? Can I transfer my H1B as I got the petition approved to another employer? Can another employer file a new petition on the current expiring approved petition?

Please help and answer my question.

Regards,
JR
