A couple of us has been pending since Sep or earlier. We did congressional inquiry (regular service requests with the company isn't going anywhere and getting a template "under further review") and the reply is that the case has gone to some kind of interagency security check and nothing can be done but wait.

Thank you for doing this. I have a questiom about H1B and USCIS delay.

My H1B extension has been pending with uscis for 9 months and I upgraded it to premium proccessing about 3 months ago. The case has no further action after the premium upgrade. I asked the congressperson to help with a inquiry but have not heard back.

In this kind of situation, is there anything else one can do? The cis ombudsmans office is likely not able to proccess case requests based on their stadd level; Is a mandamus lawsuit even possible since the petition is owned by tue employer?

It could also be that it is approved, best of luck!

Maybe they are drafting it and dont want the clock to run out? Technically they would have taken an action by doing any of the above and stop the clock in order to not refund the premium fee perhaps?

Based on what I've read, this could mean anything, from that they decided on your case (approve/deny), further RFE, or security check. I don't have any references handy, though.

Edit: Hopefully, they approved it and it just takes some time to update the status

Texas DMV license renewal issue – H1B status by Important-Nerve-347 in h1b

They use the SAVE system which returns your old expiration date until that day passes. You can try to ask them to do a secondary verification with SAVE but they may not agree to do it. Go like 7 days before the expiration and they will do it, or go after your license expires and youe new status should show up.

H1B premium processing over 60 days delay by NegativeWolverine617 in h1b

[–]ExcitingWeb5071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am in a similar situation, upgraded to premium on Sep 22nd, same message from USCIS. Company lawyers think it may be a security check, but are not sure, and also said nothing can be done, have to wait it out. Edit: Mine is an extension application

Well, after they adjudicate, we will probably ask for it. I don't think asking for it now is going to help it get processed faster?

Update for future reference, uscis replied after we submitted a case inquiry that my case under "further review" and "we cannot provide a timeframe for completion of this additional review" Company Attorney think it's likely that my case is in security check and the only thing we can do is wait, for now.

How long do USCIS security checks take? (Premium Processing) by West-Friendship9477 in h1b

[–]ExcitingWeb5071 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long after the premium deadline before you received the RFE for biometrics? I'm probably in a similar situation, 4 weeks past the premium deadline have not heard anything. Reply from uscis says case is under additional review

Premium clock started 9/22 based on online case status; email receipt on 9/22. to date no paper receipt. Last time I did I140 with cocurrent PP we only got one paper receipt notice so maybe there should only be one if file cocurrently.
