Hi - hoping someone can help with this odd question - I am on a work visa (not H1) and recently have been in talks with a firm who after finding out that I am on a different work visa, told me they would need to apply for the H1 visa which would take about 5 weeks....given that the quota has been used up for this year, wouldn't they have to wait until April 2015 to apply for my H1 visa and I can't start working using that until Oct 2015, making them massively misinformed? Or are some companies exempt from these rules? I know the exemption sounds silly but she was so confident it was bizarre...
