OPT Ending, No H1B Lottery Selection! What Are My Options?
If your OPT is ending and you were not selected in the H-1B lottery, you may still have a way to work in the U.S. By securing a job with a cap-exempt employer, you can obtain an H-1B visa outside the lottery and then work concurrently for a cap-subject employer. This allows you to maintain employment while your cap-subject employer continues entering the lottery until you are selected.
