EP Pass Renewal Rejection Possibility

F
#1

I wonder if EP Pass renewal rejection is more common than one might think? My employer a large tech company has applied it for me, this is my 1st renewal, and I haven't heard from them after 2 weeks which is the normal timeline. I remember the first time I applied, it was exactly 2 weeks, so this timeline for renewal worries me. Wonder if anybody has an experience in this.

The "normal" timeline is anything between 2 and 8 weeks.

Start worrying once this period is over!
