suji2783 Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Hi, i got my H1B approved in 2008 and I never used it and continued to work on my L1B. From 2009, I spent a year and a half in India and came back on L1B by the end of 2010 and stayed for 3 more years. Back to India again in 2014 and spent over a year and now I am back again on L1B. Am i CAP exempt provided its been more than 6 years since my H1B approval?
jairichi Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 You are eligible for 6 years - time spent in US on L1B.
suji2783 Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Posted July 20, 2015 Thank you for your response. Can you please clarify further ? I have never used my H1B. Still I would be CAP Exempt? Thanks!

suji2783 Posted July 21, 2015 Author Report Posted July 21, 2015 Additionally if you are saying that i am CAP exempt for say 2 yrs, would that be the term i am eligible to stay in the US as well? If i go thru CAP april 2016, if the clock reset back to 6 yrs again? Please clarify. Thanks!
