For petitions selected, USCIS has started issuing receipt notices.  Petitions not  selected will be returned. The USICS expects to complete the issuance of petitions by May. Considering the  high rejection rate, this e-newsletter focuses on FAQs related to H-1B status.  Please remain patient and hopeful while also exploring alternatives.
