♦ H-1B Cap Approval ♦ LEE IMMIGRATION LAW FIRM is excited to announce a recent H-1B Cap approval. We handled an H-1B Cap petition for the position of “Software Engineer” on behalf of an IT staffing and consulting company, located in North Carolina, that provides services to clients in the communications, financial services, and energy management industries. The H-1B cap was created under the Immigration and Nationality Act. The act allows U.S. employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. The H-1B visa has an annual numerical limit "cap" of 65,000 visas each fiscal year. 20,000 petitions filed on behalf of beneficiaries with a U.S. master’s degree or higher are exempt from the cap. The beneficiary of this petition completed a master’s degree in Information Systems, therefore he is qualified for the position of “Software Engineer”. Through the hard work and expertise of our attorneys, the H-1B Cap was successfully approved by the USCIS. Congratulations on your well-deserved (continued) success!!! *** Results may vary depending on your particular facts and legal circumstances. (Rule of Professional Conduct 7.1.(a)(2))
