Those who work at PwC, can you please share your experience with PwC Law. I am on an L1A visa and my I-94 expires in November 2021. I submitted all my requested documents in first week of June 2021 and PwC Law still have not submitted my extension application yet to USCIS i.e.almost 4 months now. Does anyone have similar experience with them?

Escalate. That is crazy! Email everyone you know at PwC and complain. I’m not kidding this would be freaking me out!

I’m on L1A that expires in April and I’ve submitted all my docs too, but was expecting them to do it much earlier than a month previous.

I’m also going for GC. Are you?

Maybe they are waiting for the last possible moment. Is your GC process ongoing?

As far as I know, the process is the same for everyone. They will submit close to the expiration date (the same happened to me). Once they submit you can still work for 270 days or until they approve the extension. That 270 is from the date they request the extension so if they request earlier you are only losing days on that. Absolutely no need to escalate if they already reached out to you for documents.

I don’t work at PwC but I agree with everything PwC 2 said above since the process is the same for everyone. The closer to the expiration date the extension is submitted the better for you to not lose out days out of the 270days grace period. My L1 expired 7/17/2021 and my lawyers only submitted the extension 6/10/2021.

Typical for PwC when it comes to immigration. They want to squeeze as much from you as they can while leaving you in a state of uncertainty so you can work more hours hoping that maybe just maybe they will take care of it and make sure you’re able to remain in the US.

You’re in for a ride! Try to request premium processing if possible
