Update on H1B 2009 : Application Receipts
I have been receiving lots of emails (92 emails yesterday alone) asking why they haven't received any notification from USCIS and how long they need to wait to get any confirmation. Some even getting suspicious about their employers that they are not telling them any truth about the whole processing. This prompted me to write this post. Hopefully everyone that is visiting this blog and asking questions in the blog posts will read this post, as it would be practically impossible to send response to each and everyone.
Why I haven't received any notification?
Employers are constantly receiving notifications every day, however there is no data on how many applications have been notified already. So everyone must wait until USCIS notifies that it had sent the final notification.
How long will it take?
You must wait at least until the first week of June or until USCIS issues an notification that it had sent the last notification. Be patient and there is no point getting suspicious about your employer. If you can't trust your employer now itself, it would be very difficult in the future, as there is lot more uncertainty awaiting in the future.
I have noted all your email addresses and will send you an update by email whenever we see any notification from USCIS regarding this situation. You can alternately subscribe to this blog by email to get immediate alert whenever I write a post.
Hope all readers will understand and wait for a while before sending emails almost everyday asking about any new updates. Thank you and wish you all good luck.

Any updates on Application Receipts?
I have recieved a reccipet number and I-797C Action of Notice form.
This means that my case is picked in the lottery or I have to wait for sometime.

its been almost a month now that my employer told me that my application has been picked up in the lottery, But till date he has not provided me with any receipt or tracking number. most of the people that i am in touch with have already received their receipt numbers.
on my repeated requets for soem updates he has been telling me that he has not received it ......
how does the notification work?
pls advise ....Thanks
I have not received any info abt the H1b lottery results which has forced me to think that my appln was not selected. But I would like to know when can I confirm abt the same cause I do not hear anything from my employer.
Kindly update me if u hear any notification from USCIS
Please give some information on this.
My case is also in the same boat.I didn't get anyinformation from my employer until now neither rejacted or received.I just like to know whether there is any chance to wait or it is hopeless.
Is it true that if we have not yet received a notification (either a receipt # or a rejection letter) that we are on the wait list?
If so, when do we expect to receive any news at all?
I am yet to receive my H1B status and the company is still saying they have not received the status. There are many in my company who are yet to receive the status. Does this mean that my application didnt get through?
Thanks,

I have not received any confirmation till now.. i mean neither my application is picked in the lottery nor i have received the rejection..
Is there any chance that my application still gets picked up?
