Based on my case and my observation of others in the forum, it appears that AINP has some level of pre-assessment effort for all of us in the new process as well. This takes any where between 4 to 6 weeks. And from that time in 2 months we can expect to get a file number (overall elapsed time till this stage - 3 to 3.5 months). After getting the file number we can expect a final decision in 2 to 3 months (overall elapsed time till this stage - 5 to 6.5 months).

It is slightly longer than what is was before, but I think this is still within reasonable bounds. So folks, please take this in and ease up on the tension!

Hi Guys,

Just FYI...

Today I received an email from AINP and have requested for a document which lists current job title and the main duties. The letter goes like this:

"We do have your work reference letters and job offer letter; however, we need a document which lists your current job title and the main duties (job description). If you have the USCIS petition letter job description which your employer used to supplement your H1B application, you can send us a scanned copy of that document.

We find the petition letter your employer used to supplement your H1B application, provides us with the most detailed description of your job and qualifications. We only require a copy of this letter; your employer should have already provided you with a copy of it for your records."

And they wanted me to reply back by 31st March 2009.


Guys, could you please tell me what "USCIS petition letter" mean here? All I got after H1 transfer from current employer was I-797 form in original. Kindly advise..

I sent my application to ALBERTA under NEW process on 5th Feb 2009 and got reply today.

Bro..nothing to worry...
Your employer should be sending the form I-129 to USCIS when doing H1-B petition for you. Your employer should be able to provide you a copy of that if you ask them. They provided me the same sometime ago when I was going for H1B stamping documentation.

Try to ask the same from your employer. The form will generally have the job descriptions and duties that you are expected to do.

In my opinion, this is what they are asking.

Good luck.

Thanks for sharing email2kale

Its good to know that they looked at your application. Many of us have sent the app in Jan and still have not received any communication.

Please post here If someone who sent their application late December or early January have received the file numbers.

I also received similar query exactly 2 weeks back. My employer was taking time to provide a copy of I-129. Hence took a one page general job description of my grade/title..qualifications..scope..etc. and also a proof of current employment on the company letterhead..notarized by a public notary there. To be on the safe side... I received a e-mail saying..they have recieved my documents and would add them for further processing. I hope..those were sufficient. Any thoughts on this? do you think..they might send my application back...for not sending exactly that H1B document.??

I hope not..or else...world's largest heavy equipment manufacturer would bend his head in shame....lol

I am still a Manufacturing engineer....there.

 

[CVRR]

send letter "TO WHOM EVER SO IT MAY CONCERN" to AINP...

In that mention

1 Job title
2 roles
3 current salary
4 petetion number
5 if possible current client

Letter should on your company letter pad. This will good and easy to get from your employer... and this kind of letter can be used in many place...

For me they said "We do have your work reference letters and job offer letter; however, we need a document which lists your current job title and the main duties (job description)." which mean they need just one document to fulfill AINP I guess which i have done so by sending supplement documents of H1B and asked them if they need anymore... (hope they may not ask more now).

Supplement document contains 1) I-129 form 2) LCA 3) USCIS petition letter from employer which describes my job responsibilities, job title, salary, educational qualification, etc... I got all these in one scanned copy so have sent this.

I got similar reply this morning after sending the scanned copy saying "We will add these documents to your file for processing".

Hope for the best.
