Did anyone hear from their HR/Lawyer about their H1B application being selected in the lottery without seeing any change on their SEVP portal/account? This question is only valid for the H1B applicants whose OPT was ending before 09/30/18. Some details :- “H1B Lottery Selected/ Pending Processing / Approved : The OPT end date in SEVIS system will be updated to September 30th, if it is either approved or in pending status by USCIS. What it means is that your case was selected in the lottery and is either being processed or approved” https://redbus2us.com/sevis-sevp-portal-updates-opt-cap-gap-date-extended-h1b-lottery-selected/
My opt ends in may too but nothing was updated either. I check everyday on SEVP portal ! Lol
my OPT was ending on 4th June 2018. SEVP portal now say that my ne authorization end date is 30th September 2018.
When was it updated for you ?
It was updated on 16th April
I learned about someone whose HR told them that their application was picked but their SEVP portal doesn't show any change. The OPT is supposed to end before 09/30/18 for this person and that's what the portal still shows. Wondering if someone else has had similar experience?
SEVP gets updated from SEVIS. Give it some time and there will be an update eventually. Of course assuming that HR is right about application being picked.
For whom this is the last chance, what alternate options are you considering other than going back to your home country?

Guys, don't lose hope. My sevp Portal updated today to 09/30. It basically takes the info from sevis, so give it some time.
Wow !!!! That really sounds promising !!!
Anybody know how to unlock SEVP account. Mine is locked.
Contact your dso. They’ll be able to help.
My sevis is still not updated, does that mean I dint get it this time too?
I would wait another week or so before coming to that conclusion.
My SEVP got updated on 17th with new OPT end date as 09/30/2018. However haven’t received the receipt yet. Do you know how much time will it take?
When does your opt end? Before 9/30/2018?
congrats!
Interesting post, I haven't heard anything yet. But my portal is not updated, opt ends on July 15.
