    Hi ladies,
    i just wanted to kow how long will it take to provide the approval for h1 visa. i applied fo h1 in 2008 and mine was picked in the lottery but still the status says that it is under processing only. when will they finally give the verdict as if selected or not. it totally upsets me since everyday it has become a schedule for me to go and chk the site for the update. an one has the idea abt it?

    Priya ,

    Congrats for ur H1 lottery selection. I dont think it takes so long for the approval. You might have to call up and check regarding this.
    As far as i know, Your approval papers would come around Oct 2008 , if u have applied for April 2008.

    Hi Priya,
    Congrats on being picked in lottery. Ideally they start issuing H1s in october every yr. You can go to this link https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/ptimes.jsp and check the processing times of your center.
    good luck.
