H1b approved petitions from multiple years and CAP exemption this year(Apr16)??

[CHALAMALASETTI]

Hi,

 

My case...

 

In Apr'2011, Employer#A filed H1b petition and it was approved also. Due to job market was not good did NOT go to next level ( Interview/stamping).

I have scan of I-797 receipt.

 

 

In Apr'2014, Employer#B filed H1b petition and it was also approved.  But I dont have any proof. Did NOT go for stamping/interview

 

 

Now, this Apr'16..I would like to file H1b petition....

 

My question is

 

1) Can I get CAP EXEMPTION by showing 2011 approved petition?

 

2) If can not get exemption, will there be any challenges/issues if a new petition is filed....and any do I need to mention any where about my previous filings?

 

Pls advise.

 

Many Thanks in advance.!!!

1. You are not eligible for CAP Exemption. You need to have worked on an H1 approved petition in the US to be entitled for CAP exemption.

 

2. No Issues. Your current employer might have to mention about them I think in I-129. Its not mandatory though.
