Frequent Questions

A 'specialty occupation' for H1B purposes generally requires:

1. Theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge

2. Attainment of a bachelor's or higher degree in the specific specialty (or its equivalent) as a minimum requirement

Typical specialty occupations include:

- IT professionals (software developers, systems analysts, etc.)

- Engineers (all disciplines)

- Scientists and researchers

- Financial analysts and accountants

- Healthcare professionals

- Architects and other design professionals

MyVisaUSA helps you clearly demonstrate how your position meets these requirements through proper documentation and presentation of job duties.

The H1B visa program has an annual numerical limit ('cap') of 65,000 regular visas plus an additional 20,000 for individuals with U.S. master's degrees or higher. Due to high demand, USCIS typically receives more petitions than available visas.

The process works as follows:

1. Registration Period: Employers submit basic information about prospective H1B employees during a designated registration period (typically in March)

2. Random Selection: If more registrations are received than available visas, USCIS conducts a random lottery selection

3. Petition Filing: Only selected registrations are eligible to file complete H1B petitions

Some employers are exempt from the H1B cap, including higher education institutions, nonprofit research organizations, and government research organizations.

MyVisaUSA guides you through the registration process and helps prepare your petition to be ready for quick filing if selected.

Yes, you can change employers while on an H1B visa through a process often called an 'H1B transfer.' The new employer must file a new H1B petition on your behalf.

Key benefits of H1B portability:

- You can begin working for the new employer as soon as they file the petition (before approval)

- Your existing H1B time remaining doesn't reset - the maximum 6-year limit continues

- The new petition is not subject to the annual H1B cap

MyVisaUSA can facilitate a smooth transition between employers by ensuring the new petition properly documents your eligibility and maintaining your legal status throughout the process.

The H1B visa is initially valid for up to three years and can be extended for an additional three years, for a maximum stay of six years. After reaching this limit, you generally must spend at least one year outside the U.S. before seeking a new H1B visa.

However, there are important exceptions to the six-year limit:

1. AC21 Extension: If you have a pending labor certification or immigrant petition (green card process) that was filed at least 365 days before reaching the six-year limit, you may be eligible for extensions beyond six years

2. Recapturing Time: If you spent time outside the U.S. during your H1B period, this time may be 'recaptured' and added to your maximum period of stay

MyVisaUSA can help you strategically plan your H1B timeline and identify opportunities for extensions beyond the standard limits.

The H1B application process is complex with strict requirements and frequent policy changes. Based on USCIS data, petitions prepared with professional assistance have significantly higher approval rates than those prepared without specialized help.

MyVisaUSA offers distinct advantages:

- Expert analysis of job descriptions to align with specialty occupation requirements

- Proper documentation of the employer-employee relationship

- Strategic advice on wage requirements and labor condition applications

- Thorough review to prevent common reasons for RFEs (Requests for Evidence) and denials

- Ongoing support for visa interviews, status maintenance, and future extensions

Our technology-driven approach combines efficiency with expertise at an affordable price point.
