H1B Approved - Never traveled to US - if CAP Exempt- till when?

[aryanverma1]

Hi,

My employer filed my H1 in 2012, we received an RFE and then the approval in January 2013. The approval (I-797) was granted till Sept 2015. During H1 stamping, I revived a 221g and after that my employer didnt provide me with the required documents, so the stamping never happened. I have since changed my employers. I want to know if a new employer files for my H1, till what time can they do it without going through the normal H1 quota
- Till Sept 2015 or if they can file H1 even after Sept 2015 then till what date I am CAP exempt?

Thanks for your reply

Yes, you are cap exempt. A new employer can file a cap exempt H1B petition anytime.
