H1b 2020

[kaviTx]

My husband's H1B lottery has been picked up via 2 different employers. Can he submit the documents through both the employers?  Is there a clause that 2 h1b lotteries should not be filed by the same applicant though it is for different client different employers via 2 different LCAs. 

My 2nd question: i received a 19 digit Beneficiary confirmation number from both the sponsors when the H1B lottery got picked up. Is there any website or way to cross-check that this number is picked up in the lottery. Is the I-797C  (Notice of Action) the only confirmation?

The beneficiary doesn't file anything. The employers file (and pay for the filings.)

It is possible for two independent employers to file H1 petitions for the same person. The clients also have to be different.

You can apply for both H1's if they are really 2 different jobs. If both get approved, you can pick and choose which company you want to join.
