H1b Second Round Lottery

For the internationals in the house:

Please let me know if you or anyone you know has faced a similar experience with the H1B process.

In March, my employer submitted the H1B lottery application but I was not selected. I changed employers afterwards, and USCIS just announced a second H1B selection round, does anyone know what the process will be like going forward? Do I still qualify since my application is with another employer? Thanks

USCIS been feeding us shit for a while. Out of curiosity, what’s the plan if u end up using up your OPT and didn’t get it?

People do a part time course and get a CPT that they can use to work. Otherwise leave the country, apply for an employment based visa or get another employer to sponsor your Green card from day 1.

 

Thx, that sounds tough. The things we do to stay here... Someone plz come out and fix this shit
