sfdc Posted January 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2021 I saw in forum for cap exempt 6 year rule, for me 2013 oct to till date 6 years completed.Still am I eligible for exempt. Quote Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted January 5, 2021 Report Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) The rule is 6 years is and has always been a total of 6 years in H1 status. You can get 3.4 years of cap free H1 status or should you opt for the lottery/cap and get chosen, a new total of 6 years. Before approaching potential employers, get a consult with a lawyer to discuss your specifics. Edited January 5, 2021 by pontevecchio Quote Link to comment
