H1-B appeal with AAO - status update

[Vishnutej 0]

I am also having same problem. My case was updated to “ case was relocated from AAO to USCIS originating office” on 7/16/2020. I am trying to see my recent case history but I cannot find. I can find old history in this link “https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do”but nothing new. I cannot find anything in this link “https://my.uscis.gov/“ just case received. Same thing for both I-129 and I-129B. Am I missing anything while adding case to account or USCIS didn’t update on website?

HI GBSR, how many days it took for you to get approval from USCIS after your case moved from AAO to USCIS ..?

DId you get your approval ..?

My Case was relocated to local USCIS on June 5th.
Case was actually approved on July 21st.

Got 797C in 4-5 days but I'm still waiting for 797A

Just last Friday, August 14th. So a month later than originally expected. 

Hi,

Did you get your notice after the follow up from your attorney?

Any idea what they did?

I'm in same boat. My attorney raised a service request couple of weeks back. 

Yet to receive 797A

797C is just the case approval notice

797A is the actual H1B with I94

This is my I129 Receipt History

 

 

 

 

 

Hi Jasti999, so happy for you. Congrats. I know it is such a relief to see that the Appeal was approved in you I290B. I really hope the best for you and everything will be alright with your I129 as well. Good luck on your I129 status change.

 

 

At Snny2020, 

Your user interface looks different than what I have. I had a similar UI as what Jasti999 had shared.

Thats where I think there could be some disconnect. please try using another user account.

OR as Jasti999 mentioned, your case has not moved forward and no decision has been made yet - this could be a more valid reason over the previous one but I would try the above one as well.  

Patience is the key. It took me 3 years to get the lottery and another 1.5 years to get the decision. But Thank God I still have my OPT left for 4 more months.

I got my I797B which is called Consular or something. meaning I have to leave the country, get my visa stamped and have to reenter to activate my H1B.

OR I have to apply for a Change of Status to activate my H1B so that I dont have to leave the country.

Thank you Raknah,

 

I am on the same boat, it took me 03 years just to get picked in the lottery and nearly one year for my appeal getting approved. Like you mentioned patience is the key. Did you apply for consular processing? is that the reason you did not get I797A?

i applied for Change of Status along with H-1B, do you think i can also not get Change of Status approved? i know you cannot give me definite answer, i am just curious how you applied and what you think. Thanks in advance.

I just cant answer it for you. USCIS is so unpredictable.

 

I applied as COS but got consular processing after my appeal. I am just happy to get it approved. I dont care much about cos or consular right now.
