Question regarding H1B visa


PR9

Recommended Posts

Backstory:
I am in India and I have an expired H1B (I797 , dated 2016-2019) , which i never used as i never travelled to USA. I got this via lottery in 2016 through company A. Now i am no longer with company A. 

Current situation: 
I am working for company B and they want to file a H1B for me in 2023.

 

Question: 
- Will i be cap exempt since i never used my old and expired H1b.

-  can company B file under cap exempt , and any chances of denial or any potential questions from USCIS

-What do you suggest in this case , going for cap exempt  or starting on a new slate with a brand new visa application via company B

-Any similar cases from the past ? and what was the solution ?

 

Your inputs are greatly appreciated.
