RFE denial

Nov 4, 2019 16 Comments

I recently got my petition denied for H1B. i had a speciality occupation RFE. Law firm is saying they did everything right and its just a random rejection under current administration. I work as an strategy analyst.

has anyone been into such situation? people are asking me to change job and the rationale they gave is that if u apply with same title it will get rejected.

thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Sorry you felt through the crack. But I dont blame USCIS on this one. Decades of abuse by ICCs have went through bcoz they were not stringent enough. Now they view every application with suspicion and sometimes good application like yours became the martyrs

    That sucks! In what field did you do your Bachelor's and Master's? Switching to a job more aligned with your field of study may help you.

      Few options I guess. Try again with Autodesk with a different title and JD. In parallel, keep interviewing elsewhere. You can always have multiple H-1B petitions.

    WTF. MBA -> Strategy Analyst is a very reasonable specialty occupation. And Autodesk is a big company too. Is it because it’s an Analyst position not manager?

    Where were you switching to? How long did the process take from receipt to RFE go rejection?

    This is scary. I work in strategy too - another reason to never join on receipt
