uday2015 Posted June 20, 2020 Report Posted June 20, 2020 Hi, My H1B application for 2021 was picked on the lot and received confirmation on the same. However my employer is not submitting the applications due to some organization decisions made. Can any other consultant firm file my application or it has to be only my employer? What are my options here, please help? Quote
gopalakrishnach Posted June 22, 2020 Report Posted June 22, 2020 Can any other consultant firm file my application or it has to be only my employer? No, other consultant firm cannot file. It has to be ONLY your employer. What are my options here, please help? -- If your employer do not apply then next year again lottery. Sorry. Quote
uday2015 Posted June 22, 2020 Author Report Posted June 22, 2020 thanks for your response. I have an Approved I140 but never had a H1b. Should I still go under CAP? Quote
JoeF Posted June 22, 2020 Report Posted June 22, 2020 Only the original employer can file the H1 petition. If the employer doesn't want to do that then you can't get an H1. An employer can file an H1 for you in next year's lottery. Quote
User099 Posted June 23, 2020 Report Posted June 23, 2020 Only the employer who filed for the lottery can apply the petition. You will have to go through the lottery again next time. Quote
