Is it true that H1B visas from the 65,000 annual visa cap 2000 is specially designed for non-profit
Thank you for giving relevant information to USA work visas with special emphasis on the nonprofit sector. Just one more thing, has come to my attention that the 65,000 H1B visa limit 2000 annual H1B visas is especially intended for nonprofit, religious and research in the U.S. Other exemptions that fall outside the mandate will cover those with higher degrees from American institutions, those who were in positions of research and teaching in educational institutions and job seekers in the nonprofit sector. How far I am well informed about this information? Asif
Your last sentence is correct. ! According to Press Trust of India, Posted online: Wednesday, April 25, 2007 at 1241 hours IST, the immigration authorities of the United States have announced that 2000 slots in the category H1B visa are still available for holders of master degree or advanced degrees in America. s of April 18, 2007, the U.S. Citizenship and Services Immigration Services (USCIS) had received approximately 18,000 applications for H-1B visas for foreigners with advanced degrees. Congress has mandated that the first 20,000 applications are exempt from any fiscal year cap on available H1B visas. The agency is doing its final tabulations for FY 2008 and the expectation is that the availability total of 65,000 visas under the H1B general category finish. Other exemptions not covered on the top of mandate will be those with higher degrees from American institutions, those given in the positions of research and teaching in educational institutions and those seeking employment in the nonprofit sector.
