  1. My H1B petition is approved with the beneficiary name as XXX YYY , No Name Given.

    While filling DS 160 form for my stamping , i realized that my surname in the passport is BLANK with the given name being XXX YYY . Hence my company immigration team suggested me to reissue new passport by splitting the full name into XXX as the given name and YYY as the surname.

    Now that i have to proceed with stamping , my company immigration team are asking me to provide the details as per the new passport while filling DS 160 form. However my question is that since there is a discrepancy in the name between I-797 & my new passport, will it cause any problem during stamping or once i land to US. If yes , how can this be rectified.

  4. Hi,

    Thanks Redbus for all your help until now!

    I am still dealing with H1B issues from 2016. I had to change my position & location within the company (same employer) in Sep, 2016. My H1B petition had been selected in the lottery by then and I was working on OPT that had been extended till Sep 30. My H1B petition was filed in Change of Status. I started the new role in Sep, 2016 and I have mostly been in training since then. The HR/lawyers took their time and USCIS received the petition for amendment & extension in mid-Dec, 2016 in premium processing.

    USCIS has issued an RFE to explain how I maintained my status with regards to the previous petition. Specifically they have asked how my paystubs show office B (in city B) while I was approved to work in office A (in city A).

    What are my options right now? Since I still do not have an H1B visa (I believe I only have H1B status), the outcome impacts my H1B visa and legality of stay for almost 3 months. I am very worried. Could you please let me know how serious this RFE is and what are my options to position myself for maintenance of status?
