Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

#H1B This information helps us determine whether a petition is subject to the regular congressionally mandated cap of 65,000 H-1B visas. An advanced degree exemption is available for the first 20,000 petitions filed for a beneficiary who has obtained a U.S. master’s degree or higher. Once that limit is reached, any petitions filed for beneficiaries with a U.S. master’s degree or higher will count against the regular cap, unless exempt for other reasons.
