Hello saathi haru, namaste!!

Balla balla apply garda garda yo paali mero H-1B pick bhaako ho. April ko 2nd week ma tero case lottery maa pick bhayo bhanera khabar aauda mutu le thaau chhodya thyo. However, USCIS has not given any further information as of now. I keep on checking the case number multiple times a day but there is no update. I have also checked with my lawyer but even he doesn't have any idea when I'll get the final approval letter. My current company had applied for my H-1B under the Master's cap. I am currently working on TPS. I have already received my Canadian visa (just in case, to go outside of the country for H-1B visa stamping because my lawyer said adjustment of status is not possible in my case since I only have TPS and no other status). TPS pahila I was working under OPT.

Has anyone received their approval (or any RFE) after your application passed the lottery for this year's H-1B program? I'd really appreciate any help or insights you can provide.

Jai Nepal!!

Thank you guitarcenter bro. Ahile samma na aauda ali freak out bhai raa chu. :( Kaam ta siddhai company ma ho, but through ONE vendor/implementation partner. Subject ni milcha. Khoi... herum...

College maa information up-to-date chai ali bujhina. College wala haru laai thaaha cha-- they know ma OPT maa thye ani TPS maa gaako ho bhanera.

Thanks!

@StatusPidit:

Bro, don't worry i was in the similar situation last year but was in STEM OPT but had registered for TPS too.

July is too early these days even to get a approval/RFE/denial notice. Last year i got my RFE around September. Responded to RFE in mid October and was approved in early November.

Man, i know how it feels and how stressful this whole process is but just be patient. If your documents are good no need to worry.

chabahil_nepali,

Thanks for sharing, bro!!

I am working as a Senior Software Engineer as a full time regular employee not contract or temporary. MS degree with Computer Science. Currently, working with TPS EAD with F-1 (second master). Previously got H1B for cap exempt employeer while working with OPT from my first master. My company has filed the H1B and got selected in lottery. The lawyer told that the wage level was not Level-1. What is the chance that it will be accepted?

Hello NepaliNajar bro,

Unfortunately, I do not have the answer to your question regarding the prevailing wage determination for a level 1 LCA. But I am really curious to know why you had to reapply for H-1B when you already had it from a cap-exempt employer.

I got laid off filed change of status from H1B to F1.

Ohh!! gotcha. Thanks bro. Wish you all the best for this year's approval.

It was my bad decision to file H1B from cap exempt and could not find new employer and could not able to transfer H1B on short period of time. Fortunately, TPS helped me.

@StatusPidit

Did you get your approval @StatusPidit?

NepaliNajar bro,
Mero approval aako chaina ni ahile samma. Still worried bro. :(

mitraharu,

Mero receipt number check garda "My case status does not recognize the receipt number entered vancha aile samma pani. Research garda internetma aruko pani esto vairako rahecha. Esto samasya vako vaye ehan arulai share gardim na la.Receipt letterma Received date 4/12 vancha.

Need suggestions:
Guys, my H1b is approved. But project(gov) ends on Oct 16 2018 so got it till Oct 16, 2018(Sad news). Highly chances of project extension and would only come to know it about a month ahead. No other ways. Lead and project manager says it would get extended for sure.

I have Stem Ead till mid of 2020.
I am looking for best possible options and anyone with suggestions please let me know.

@NepaliNajar Bro Can you work on your TPS Ead while on F1 ? From what i heard is it will violate the F1 policy (F-1status allows for limited on-campus employment and authorized practical training only) and using TPS EAD will violate that. Just curious if we can use TPS EAD and maintain F1...anhy insights bro ?

I am using TPS based EAD for my full time work and my status is still F1. I have valid I-20. I do not know other thing.

Create account in the above website and check the status. Hope it works for you.

I had checked the status of my H1B application in https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov and it is saying Your case has been approved. Thank you god!

Congratulations NepaliNajar brother!! I am very happy for you.

NepaliNajar brother, do you have to go out of the country to do change of status and visa processing or can you do it from here itself?
