Hi Friends

Need advice on my case here

My H1 expired on 09/30/2014 (I94 expired on same date)

Model: EVC

We filed for H1b Extension 3 months back in Regular processing. Got an RFE on 3 weeks back. RFE was about employer details (Quiarterly Wage Report, Business Licenses, Company Profile, Federal Income Taxes for 2012)

Replied to RFE within a week and changed the process to Premium Processing (Need to change since our state was not extending DL without original H1B approval letter)

2 days back, we got a 2nd RFE from USCIS. This time asking some of the details as below
Amendment information - (We did not do H1B amendment when i changed the client from PA to CA) - Big concern about this
We did LCA ammendment
Client, Vendor and Employer letters with more details about work and date - We can provide this
Asking to submit the documents again regarding my status which we submitted before
LCA deatils - Concern here.. Was asking about why my Wage Level was not increased from Wage Level 1 based on my experience and qualification

Looks like we have a slim chances of getting approval.

We will be replying to RFE within a week. Any suggestions? Do i have any back up plans?

Me too on the same boat... Changed from MD to CA, never thought Amendment was required in my case, as my position and designation remain unaffected....

Can someone tell when we go for Amendment?? Is it applicable even when for changing contracts

2) Applied for H1 transfer through my consultancies sister company on Oct 2nd week.
3) Received RFE for my H1 trsnsfer.
3) Replied to RFE on Dec 2nd week.
4) H1 transfer got approved on Dec 3rd week.
5) Sent response for my H1 ext on 10/23
6) H1 extension was approved on 01/02/2015.

So i am out of troubles for now.

Just sharing my experience, might be helpful to others.

Initially i lost all hopes, 4 months of tension, irritation etc.
