Intensive Appeal to Respond: 2006 petition for Cap exempt and Applying for new H1B

Friends,

 

Greetings!!

 

Old petition details

  • Applied in August 2005
  • Petition Approved in March 2006 and Expired on September 2008
  • Attend visa Interview and got VIsa stamped in July 2006
  • Not travelled to US on H1b status at all so not used full span of 6 years

with the above details Am I eligible for Cap exempt ?

 

One the employers is ready to fileH1b as cap exempt in Premium process within this week and the approval process may take time till last week of March 2015.

 

If I dont get any response from USCIS regaring cap exempt before 1st April 2015 Can my employer apply for new H1b for the 2016 quota on 1st April ??

 

Any suggestion that it is better to go for new H1b without Cap Exempt as we have less time

 

Sincerely request to respond to my queries as I have only 2 weeks to take decision.

 

Thanks in advance.

Forum Members,

 

My 10 years unused old petition got approved with new employer. 

 

Bottom line : we can utilized "unused petition & period" under Cap exempt.

 

Sincere thanks to Jairichi and others
