Is there a cap on H1-B Visa?
Unfortunately, yes. The current number per fiscal year is 65.000. However, if you are a master’s or higher degree graduate of a U.S. institution, there is an extra 20.000 quota for you. And if your sponsor is a higher education institution, a nonprofit organization working under a higher education institution, or a government research initiative, the visa cap rule does not apply.
H1-B Visa duration varies from applicant to applicant. However, you can be issued a visa valid for up to three years.
