BAL is taking its own sweet time to file my H1B transfer. My LCA was approved on Dec 30. They have all the documents needed to file and give me an update every week saying they will be filing it shortly. Any of you folks experiencing the same ?

They usually take about a week after LCA approval. With the holiday break, I think they should file a petition before end of this week. if not I would escalate this to my recruiter and ask help. What’s the joining date given you?

helpful

My joining date is Jan 31. I have sent my recruiter a note. Hoping to hear from my recruiter and BAL on Tuesday.

Completely understand - I am ok with the joining date being pushed by a week or two. Will take that time off and relax as I am moving jobs after almost 9 years.

Hi All, currently Visa is approved, stamping is yet to be done... But the package is 60k only and I heard from colleagues who are already there, that this is not sufficient...
