Yes. I will be working for the sponsoring company. The USCIS has not got back to me after the h1b interview(3.5 months ago). Is the scrutiny on startup employees more than multinational companies? I am the first employee of my employer to sponsor an h1b.


That's odd. You might want your employer to reach out to a Congressman's office to follow up with the Consulate. Were you given any reason at the time of your interview?


Yes. We did that. The reply from USCIS had nothing other than the standard reply. They didn't tell me anything in the interview. Just took all my papers.


That makes no sense. I would have the Congressman's office reach out again. What's your area of expertise?


We have e-mailed another Congressman from our state. They launched a Congressional Inquiry. Hopefully, something positive will come out. My area of expertise is software development.
