My new employer applied for H1 petition (transfer) under Premium Processing. Its been almost two weeks since package was delivered to USCIS over the mail, but attorney is saying that they didn't even receive the receipt notice yet (do not confuse with approval notice!!!) and therefore they do not even know the petition # (i.e. EAC YYYY XX or WAC YYYY ZZZ). Is it possible at all? I thought that for PP cases USCIS ALWAYS send notification over email in few days after they receive the petition package. Am I wrong?

H1B Premium Processing Delay
A company filed my H1B COE under PP on 01/08/2018. The package reached USCIS WAC – California Service Center on 01/09/2018. As of 01/23/2018 the lawyers have not received the receipt number via email or regular mail. Has anyone else been facing delays getting receipt numbers via PP?

Attorney missed a cheque
I was in the same situation. Even after two weeks, my attorney kept telling me they didn't receive a receipt notice. When they contacted the service center, we were told that the packet didn't include the check for Anti-Fraud Fee. They just kept hold of the packet, until they were contacted. It was sent back to us last week and my company included the check and mailed the h-1b packet to USCIS yesterday. Fingers Crossed this time!
May be your company/HR/attorney is not giving you the full details to avoid embarrassment. Usually no receipt number after a week for premium applications means, they missed something important in your application like a cheque or on on i-907 form. USCIS just wait for the petitioner/attorney to contact them to get authorization to send the packet back.

Same Problem
My H1B transfer petition was filed through a big name employer under PP on April 9th 2018, however till today (16 April) we have not gotten receipt from USCIS.
Not sure if this is a wide spread problem or not because my friend's petition filed on 29th March got a receipt on 4th April (different employer)
Anyone filed in April who got receipt?
