Hello,
I have returned last August (2012) from the US after a stay of 8 yrs on f1/H1B. I had not initiated any processes for Green Card, however I would like to get back to the US under H1B again. Since I had completed my MS I "had" come under the additional 20k visas. My question is:
1. If there is a company willing to sponsor me "now" (at this point in time), can I apply for the H1B right away or do I need to wait until I finish the one year "waiting period" since I have finished my 6 year stint, which is Aug 2013. The question, for more clarity is though I am out of the country right now, even to "just apply" do I have to wait a whole year (though its almost that time).
2. Also, which category will I fall under, is it the additional 20k visas or the regular cap or the lottery system.
3. If it is the additional 20k, do I still need to wait until October of this year just to apply, cos I will have to inform the company of the delay.
Appreciate if someone or any of the attorney's at immihelp can answer these questions for me.
Thanks
