The law firm didn’t show me the RFE so I’m not sure. It was with WAC. I filed earlier in Nov and got the approval last week. Processing time was about a week. Hope this helps:)

Yeah I was in the same boat. I did a search on the Uscis app. It looks like out of ~200 cases, only 4 were denied. Granted half of them are still being reviewed or on RFE, the denial rate is still low.

There is an app which you can track the status of your case with. I don’t quite remember the name of it... but I think it’s actually supported by uscis. And there is a function in there where you can do a search of up to 300 cases around your serial number and see the results of it.

What was the rfe for?

Congrats! When did you respond to the RFE? And at what service center? Did you get the approval today? Or last week?

I just landed an RFE as well. How long did USCIS take to respond?

OP, was your h1 filed in premium?

I'm only beginning to prep for my documentation. It's so much work 😢

I'm also on the 240 day period meaning that if USCIS isn't happy with my response, Bbye USA on the same day

PwC user Op where did you find this stats? I have an rfe on my amendment

OP, please share how you got that info. Would love to get some positive news

Plaintiffs counsel took my clients deposition today. He mentioned that he would likely be ordering the transcripts and I suggested we split the cost of them (in front of court reporter). He got pretty defensive and said absolutely not, it’s unfair to the court reporter, and that it is frowned upon in the industry to do that. Each party orders (and pays for) their own copy. I’m in my 2nd year of practice, never heard such a thing. I’ve actually split the cost before! Curious for insight on this…
