H1b cap exempt remainder time and filing type - from India


Recommended Posts

Is my calculation on H1b from below table correct? I consulted a local att. and he was in a hurry, but said I have a unique case where I have 1.2 years left on H1b and am also CAP exempt. Now when I file through H1b - "extension", I will get 6 years. I want to confirm a) filing type is H1b Extension through new employer b) whether I am cap exempt.

If you have been abroad for at least a year you have the option of being cap-exempt and getting the remaining H1 time, or of going through the quota and get a new full 6 years (if selected in the quota.)
