Hi all,
I got aDR on march 15th and submitted on March 17th.
Schedule A, proof of fund and PCC
They sent docs recvd msg same day and online account shows ADR "not applicable"

I got connected with an agent today and she said my Background is still under process and Security not started yet. Asked me to call back after April 19th if no update recvd.

Was super excited when i got ADR and now down again after knowing above!!!

It's possible the officer has not yet assessed your PCC. Once he/she does, background and security will complete quickly (maybe even in a day). Almost there!

Will you be maintaining your H1 status after moving to Canada?

No I am cancelling my H1B status after moving permanently in the next few months. My company has a Canadian subsidiary and I will be working remotely for my US company through them (I do not work in tech, I'm an aerospace engineer). One probably can't maintain H-1B status anyway if one lives outside the US longer than 6 months continuously in any case.

I'm in Canada and I get through 90% of the times I tried (it takes about 10 - 15 calls to get through). I call early in the morning between 8 and 9am EST, and also in the afternoon after 2pm EST. I avoid Fridays.

The trick is:
  • when they ask you press 1 to enter your UCI, press 2 instead (to indicate you don't have a UCI), then
  • When you hear Afghanistan Press 1 and then 2 and then 0.
  • If you hear "we are busy...", hang up and repeat.
Continue till you hear "we are transferring your call..."
