I am moving to Microsoft. I have received my receipt notice and checked on both myaccount.uscics.dhs.gov and https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/mycasestatus.do It shows my ’Case was approved and will mail your approval notice’. I asked my attorneys whether they received any email notice since it’s premium but the reply was “We will mail you an email confirmation upon receipt of the approval notice and instructions to pick up. Please Note that it generally takes at least 2 weeks to receive and process the H-1B approval notice after USCIS issues the online case status confirming approval.” Is it safe enough for me now to give leaving notice and switch? I know I am probably over thinking but so many uncertainties. Edit - I cross verified my receipt number is correct as I have physical receipt notice scan. TC - 195k Yoe - Almost 3
Usually it’s safe, but check with the immigration team once
Checked and the second paragraph was their reply
It’s safe enough to put notice in current org
Unless lawyers didn't screw up by giving you the wrong petition number, you are good.
Cross verified with the Physical Receipt notice Scan 🙂
Could you share your comp breakdown for MS and what level are you coming in at? (I'm at the same YOE and planning to interview at MS)
Ece background 140k base 110k stocks over 4 years 40k joining L62 Yoe - 2.8
Did you have competing offers because that seems pretty good for YOE esp the stocks since looks like they pay 20-40K stocks over 4 years. Also is it a software engineer role or hardware related role? And is the location Redmond?
usually it is safe enough. great offer, congratulations
Wait for confirmation.
Did microsoft receive the approval notice in 2 weeks? asking for a friend.
I think its better to wait till the attorneys confirm they have approval notice.
