H1b cap

[raddoc]

I have heard conflicting information regarding the effect of the H1b cap on waiver positions.

Does the H1b cap apply for waiver positions ??

If yes, was this a problem during the years when the H1bs capped ?

I was stuck in cap back in 1999 but since Y2K jwaivers are not subjected to cap specially if one is working in non for profit community health centers
Hope this helps

even if J waiver is subjected to cap J applicants are consideded in status if H as I-94 for J has D/S stamped and one can convert status and start working right away once H is approved and doesnot have to get H stamped in order to start working
hope this helps
