What was the RFE about? And what did your law firm send as a response?
That would make some things clear

helpful

Attorneys don’t tell us reason for the rfe unfortunately. It’s weird. Waiting for hear from my attorneys regarding the denial

Nothing yet, but good luck. Did you get an RFE before the denial?

I did

What’s your background OP?

approval chances are 50-50 depending on refilling. I have colleagues in PwC whose extension got denied but after reapplying got approved. They had to leave the country for few months and work from different location and came back once approved. Good luck. This current administration is such a nuisance. 😕

They are reapplying for it and I should hear the result before my current h1 expires. Hoping for the best

What is your education background?

Oh that’s shouldn’t have been the issue. Can you check what’s your job code in LCA? Did you get any amendment done in recent year?

OP - sorry to hear this. As M1 suggested, check your SOC code in your LCA, that should match with your job description. If it doesn't, then you can refile with the right SOC code.

Do you know should be the SOC code for a Masters degree ?

?? WT* is this? How does it add value or provide some relief to OP's woes? Keep this BS away

I went through the same. Waiting for approval for refiling

Good luck. Hoping for the best

Hi OP,
was this your 3 year extension following completion of 6 years? Do you have your approved I-140 ?

This is weird. Deloitte’s immigration sucks. I am sure they may have done mistake with your job code. Can you send them email? I know they don’t even respond. Just keep on sending email to them. Get any pattern involved whom you know well
