April 3rd :USCIS update to AILA ( American Immigration Lawyers Association )

• USCIS has updated AILA team that, if there were courier delivery problems to USCIS office for the H1B petitions filed, USCIS will accept a second H1B Application for FY 2015 under certain circumstances.
• What it means to you is that, if your petition is delayed by your mail carrier, you can submit a new H1B Application with New Fee and Explanation for the delay including a requisition to withdraw the first petition. If there is no explanation and you file a new petition, USCIS will consider it as duplicate petition and deny/revoke the same and not refund the filing fee.
• USCIS is monitoring the situation and update us with more info. Check AILA Updates
