H1B Revocation Query

[hardik1010]

HI There,

I have a Query if any immigration lawyer can assist me please. Below is my Case :

My Employer applied for H1B in Nov 2011. In July 2012 my petition got approved. In August 2012 i got my Visa stamped. My I129 Approval notice was valid from July 2012 till April 2014.

In January 2013, I entered US and in April 2013 I was back in India. After which i have not visited US till date. Also I left my sponsoring employer in 2014 itself.

Today when i was checking my Receipt status on USCIS Website, it shows that my application is revoked. I think as i left my earlier employer they must have revoked the application.

My queries are :

1) Can any other employer sponsor me H1B based on my earlier H1B approved petition
2) Will it be Cap exempt or do i need to go through CAP round again.

Any help appreciated

Hi Member,

I dont know whether you filed H1B petition at present.. But, I am sharing my view on your question which will help others to understand.
Sorry for delay response on your questions.

1) Can any other employer sponsor me H1B based on my earlier H1B approved petition
Answer: I dont think so, you will be eligible for CAP exempt filing as you crossed 6 years since your previous H1B validity.

2) Will it be Cap exempt or do i need to go through CAP round again.
Answer: For now, you will need to consider H1B CAP filing in order to get new H1B. Please note, if you are on H1B status within 6 years then you will be eligible for CAP exempt petition filing.

Thanks
