does anyone know, if our h1b is not selected, how and when will we know that its not selected? I am desperately waiting for my receipt notice and i have not gotten it yet...so, i am thinking may be i wont get it...and that's fine...what else can i do? but when do we know that it was not selected, if it was not selected? in case of premium processing, will they send you some notice saying that you are screwed??? I want to know either way as soon as possible, i cannot hang on this thin rope of hope forever. anyone???

Anyone have filed multiple filing and waiting for approval? or are they getting denied?

No, I think they would not cash your check if you are not selected in the lottery. It was the mistake they made last year...even after sending the receipt notice, some of the candidates did not get the lottery last year, so they changed it for this year and they are not to cash the cheque of anyone who is not selected in the lottery...so, if your cheque is cashed, that means that your application is picked up in the lottery...you would still have to go through the approval process, which is think is about 2% of the work(going thru lottery and getting picked is 99%).

i did not file multiple h1bs..and i hope noone else has...coz if they have, theirs is going to be denied and application fee will not be returned. that is my understanding.

We  are being charged $1000 bugs to get the decision withing 15 days regardless if u get thru lottery or not. Since they notify you whatever be the outcome of the lottery they will take $1000 bugs for their service. Only the amount applicalble to H1B petition will be return. This is what i have understood. Good Luck to everyone

Hey MN Nepali:
Did you get any receipt for yours. I applied from two different company because the first company i asked to apply did not showed any interest until the end. I assumed that they would not file for me this year as they screwed my application last year too. But now they call me to say they got the receipt number.

The company i plan to work in near future also applied and they also got the receipt.

Both Advanced degree/Non premium. I am really confused and scared now. How long do we have to wait to get the approval?

This is scary!
