Received RFE on my H1B extension application. My H1B visa expires in mid April so around 5 weeks left. Feeling a bit stressed out. Anyone worked through this in past? Is it normal? What are the consequences?

      But the consequences of NOT having the extension would mean a few things in terms of options:
      1. Switch to spouse’s H1 as a dependent. Apply for EAD but that means you CANNOT work til it arrives and then, your H1B extension will be reapplied for.
      2.Ask Apple to move you to Canada, London or India etc till this is sorted. This also means, you are away from family for a while

  • It is Normal.In rare cases extension might get rejected if USCIS is not happy with the RFE response.

    Relax, it could be a simple RFE. Just wait for the reason and work with your attorneys. Getting an RFE doesn't mean a denail.
    As long as there is a good supporting documentation you should be good.

  • What is it about? I have had RFE almost the entire time i have been here, no big deal. The immigration team usually takes care of them well.
