H1 visa validity

[pxmuthy]

Hi,

I was on H4 for an year. The after I converted to H1. Can I know whether my H1 is for 6 years or for 5 years. Is any H for years or H1 itself is for 6 years. Please let me know.

Thanks

Time spent in the US in H1 status (and L1 status) is limited to 6 years in each cap used.
