H-1B Visa Lottery: Beneficiary-Specific Non-Transferable
Selection in the H-1B visa lottery is the first step for obtaining an H-1B visa. This selection is formally acknowledged through the USCIS Form I-797C, or Notice of Action, which signifies a successful lottery outcome and initiates the journey toward filing the H-1B visa petition. Understanding the non-transferability of the lottery selection tied explicitly to the named beneficiary is essential.
