navighag Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hi I had H1B in 2008 and then had to cancel it when recession hit. Then i went to H4 from H1b and then to F1. Currently I am on OPT and OPT extension will expire in July 2014. When should i start planning to apply for H1B? Do I have to go through lottery process again or am I cap exempt? I would really appreciate your help. Thanks Link to comment
JoeF Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 If you have been counted for the H1 quota in the last 6 years, you are not counted again. An employer can file an H1 petition for you at any time and you can start working in the H1 job when the H1 petition is approved. Link to comment
