Maybe all the applications with premium processing is screwing all of us up. That's why the Vermont site is still processing applications that were received on April 02, is because they have to "premium" process all the other ones..... this sucks..... My company said they would do my premium processing also, but since we were filing on April 01, we thought it wasn't necessary. This situation is getting worse and worse. I feel bad for the students who are graduating 2-3 years from now. I am sure their H1 will fill up and they won't make it even if they file it with "premuim" on April 01. Maybe it will be called H1B lottery instead of H1B visa then..... I don't get it, how can someone file it on April 25 get a confirmation and not someone who filed in April 02. Maybe they need to understand the meaning of the word chronological.... its times like these, I wonder how this country is successful.
