Cap exempt H1B’s are available for ALL types of H1B jobs and positions.

Cap-Exempt Petitions:

Current H1B Workers:

Petitions filed on behalf of current H1B workers do not count towards the congressionally mandated H1B cap. Accordingly, this rule does not affect USCIS processing of petitions filed to:

·            Extend the amount of time a current H1B worker may remain in the United States ;

·            Change the terms of employment for current H1B workers;

·            Allow current H1B workers to change from one cap-subject position to a different cap-subject position with a different employer; or

·            Allow current H1B workers to work concurrently in a second H1B position.   

A common myth is that you have to be a lecturer or teacher to get a job at a University. This is NOT true – think of a University as a business – they have IT departments, they have finance departments – they have most of the same type of departments as a typical business has. This means all types of jobs are typically available within Universities, and Universities are typically great places to work with great benefits.
