anuscaria Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 I got a new H1B on May 2010 and it got extended to June 2014. I worked in the United States for one year and went on vacation to India. When I went for stamping ,it got rejected in Dec 2011, Now I am back in US in H4 visa. I read in some forum that i will not be subject to the visa cap as I will have been counted in the visa cap within the past 6 years. Is it true? Does it hold against my case? Link to comment
jairichi Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Yes, you are cap exempt till you reach your max allowed stay of 6 years on H1B. Link to comment
