I797B Approval notice received, but I'm already in USA
#I797B#I-797B#H1B#CPT
I received H1B approval but the notice shows I-797B. I am already residing in the USA with a contractor job and valid employment status. I never had any gaps in my status as a student also.
when the H1b application was picked up, I was (and still am) doing 2nd MS. my Visa date expired on the passport, but have mainted the status through the University's I-20.
Why, then did I receive I797B instead on I797A. What are my next steps?
