Same story why bachelor degree is required for this position and explain the job duty with bachelor degree courses. Just plain waste of time and resource.

Pitney Bowes blue moon OP Feb 16, 2018

Was it rejected or RFE

Cox Automotive Nis Feb 16, 2018

Got an RFE on H-1 transfer. Still preparing all documents and will submit next week. What abt you?

Pitney Bowes blue moon OP Feb 16, 2018

No premium processing?

Pitney Bowes blue moon OP Feb 16, 2018

They will file mine next week, moving from one of the tech giants to start up.

I say, if it is not do or die situation then don’t make a change. Wait till everything calm down otherwise expect an RFE. I have friend who has I-140 approved and got RFE in extension. Nothing has been changed still.

H1b should avoid early stage startups as much as possible

Pitney Bowes blue moon OP Feb 16, 2018

Not in early phase. 1000 employees strong and growing.

Cox Automotive Apexsf Feb 16, 2018

It doesn’t matter right now, you are in startup or giant corporation. They are sending an RFE to most of all applicants.

Sorry to hear about RFE @cox . What role are u in ? Eng or pm ? What is reason for rfe ? What are lawyers saying ?

Cox Automotive Apexsf Feb 20, 2018

No problem buddy! I work as a Salesforce Developer, filed as a software developer. Lawyer is saying that this is normal in current administration and they are very confident. Reason is why you need bachelor degree for this position?
