can H1B cap-exempt employer(Non-profit organisation) file H1B against general cap quota

[rk_prabhu]

Hi everyone,

I work with a non-profit organisation ( H1B cap-exempt employer).

My questions,

[1]- a cap-exempt employer can file H1B against the General H1B quota ( i.e, filing against the H1 cap) ? Is this possible ?

or

[2]- is it possible for me to take the current employers (which is a cap-exempt employer) employment letter (i.e., offer letter) and file a general H1B ( cap subjected one) through a third party employer (lets consider a consultant here). So the scenario am considering here is possible legally.

Hi Prabhu,

I am not sure about the 1st question but reg your 2nd question, its definitely possible as per my idea. you can see this thread which has very good info reg moving from cap-exempt to a cap-subject employer.
