I came to US 3 months back on a H4 visa and an employer offered me
a job, and he is willing to apply a H1visa for me. my question is
I heard from my friends I have to be on h4 visa for about 6 months
before I move to h1. is that true ?
Thanks a bunch
You will have to wait for the H1 quota to be available. That will happen on Oct 1st.
No, you will have to wait until Oct. If your friends told you in April that you need to wait 6 months, that would be true!kks8142 said:Thanks for the reply.
some of my friends, saying that I have to wait for about 6 months

Thanks.
Now if your employer has not applied for your H1 yet, the time taken to process that new H1 might take 6 months, depends on the Service Center processing times.
