Hi

If someone has done a BA from india (3 years course), 3 year NIIT Program and 1 year professional experience, would they qualify for a H1b visa?

Does anyone know of a similar case where peitition was denied by INS or the visa was denied by embassy?

Thanks in advance
 
Better you get it evaluated by an independent agency. INS needed my transcripts to be evaluated. It should be equivalent to the 4 yr college in US in the respective discipline.--Good luck!!!!!!!!!
 
Thanks!!

Hi

Would it suffice to get H1 visa?

"should be equivalent to the 4 yr college in US in the respective discipline"

in which occupation would they get the visa? Since the person here is a BA...would they get the visa for arts jobs and not software?

Regards

I got an offer for a contract position from my old company. If I want to use H1-H1 transfer is it valid ?
Actually I want to know if the contract positions are valid for H1B visa.
Please reply soon.

D111: H1 with arts degree is possible. But somebody has to certify that your arts degree + the courses+ experience is equivalent to a bachelors degree in the field in which you are seeking employment. If you are from India possibility of a visa stamp even after INS approves it is very slim.

rim: Consult a lawyer. Are you talking about hourly rate instead of annual salary (becoz, all employers enter into a "contract " with their employees). I think it is possible.

But there might be restrictions. Normally you have to receive some compensation from your H1 employer in line with prevailing wages.
