Hey. When was your petition submitted?

Processing timeframe depends on the service center, and I’m sure there are also other factors. It hasn’t been that long so I wouldn’t worry (easier said than done I know)

Congrats OP. How did this work? Did you submit your application in March and just received an approval? Or were you initially rejected to later be approved? Just curious because next year is my last attempt and I’m praying for a miracle right now😃

Thanks! 😄 my application was submitted in early June and got approved straightaway. Definitely had to do with luck. Sending good thoughts your way, hope you’ll get that approval with minimal stress!

Hello all. My company just went through an acquisition and the company did some restructuring of job titles. When they did this we were all advised the company would be making sure our jobs pay aligned with the national average.
My issue with this is my job title went from a Technical Support Supervisor to a Customer Success Team Lead. I have voiced my concerns with management but have been advised job titles are semantics. In my eyes this is a demotion, and will affect how much my job is worth.
