Is it true?

My amendment application filed in September got approved today. It was for a location change only and don’t think additional information was requested

I have also heard that getting approvals is becoming more difficult than in the past

Heard similar things. But most of them approved once you provide valid docs at the end.

Which consulting firms are we talking about here?

I work with Deloitte and I heard about a H1 extension getting rejected after a RFE since they couldn’t get a client letter stating the employee is needed longer than their H1B expiry date

Deloitte could not give a letter confirming the extension or availability of another project? Something does not sound right but these are strange times

Need a quick point of view all - today on a group call, I asked a new c level male exec if it was fine for me to provide a client with a piece of information we had been discussing on the call (this required his approval). He replied “you’re an adult so tell them what you want”. I was immediately livid and felt it was a totally weird, condescending response. I’m a senior female employee at the company and this guy has already had issues at the company with his tone, thoughts? Am I overreacting?
