Request for premium processing if that's an option. I recently filed extension in premium and it barely took anytime.

It is actually under premium processing.. immigration team submitted to USCIS on Monday (2/12) so hoping to get the approval by end of next week (2/23). Calling it a wait because I accepted the offer in 1st week of Jan, but the immigration team just moves slowly.

I am on the same boat as you.
It’s taking me forever though to get that approval. Even under premium processing

Please keep posted on how it goes in this thread

EY1 .. did you get an RFE under premium processing? When was your application submitted?

Yup got RFE.
Submitted in first week of December and got RFE in 10 days.
Law firm is still working on the response.
Not sure why it’s taking them so long to file

Got it.

You do have a receipt number so you can join with it. However it is risky.

Firm applied for H1B extension on Feb 8, got receipt on Feb 13 and approved today, Feb 14.

Wow..nice ATK1.. not sure if there is a difference in the H1B application while changing employers vs extension at current employer.

Damn, EY1. That long to freaking respond to an RFE...Are you switching to D??

Wondering what else I can do to expedite

It seems like an issue with D’s immigration team as opposed to USCIS. Can you request the HR to push on it? I am sure they have need for staff for whatever team you are hired for.

Yeah I tried it. HR said it’s beyond their control. We have to follow their process

GG law sucks..

Lol they are saying it will take 4 more weeks to do it

Deloittes immigration team sucks seriously. Makes me angry at how many screw us I have learned about whilst I was there and still do.

Update. Received H1B approval for change of Employer on 2/22 (filed on 2/12).

Congrats

How flexible is Deloitte with the start date because of H1b processing time? I signed the offer mid-may for July 12 because it seemed realistic enough for premium H1b transfer. But the lawyers seem slower than what I was used to and July 12 does not seem likely. Is this going to be a problem?

Has anyone here gone through a marriage based green card process with Deloitte? I believe I read somewhere that you can start that process regardless of being in an application period or not. Want to hear some stories of length, initiation, etc

I am about to accept an offer with Deloitte Digital. Curious to see what the timeline for H1B transfer looks like. Has anyone been thru it recently and can give me an estimate.
