I have consumed 4.5 years of my H1 B Visa which got expired in March 2014. I have still 1.7 years left on my H1 B visa. Does my case comes under H1 B exempt. Do I need to file fresh H1 B since it got expired in 2014.

Your employer/potential employer can file a cap exempt petition for you and request for the remainder period (1.7 Years at max).Originally posted by varunlau View Post

H1 B Filling Date
Hi,
Even if my H1 B was filed in October , 2007 and I entered USA in March 2008 and did extension in September 2010 and my H1 B was valid till March 2014. Am I*eligible*for H1 B Cap exemption. I already consumed 4.5 years of mine H1 B.

Yes, as you were in valid H1 status in last 6 Years. They look at last held H1 status, if within last 6 years and time remaining on H1 the petition is approved for time requested/6 year stay completion which ever is earlier.Originally posted by varunlau View Post
