Instead,
They could even retrogress H1B...if quota gets full and anybody applies...they will be put in queue for next year's quota...and on ..on...
somebody who applies today for H1B might get his H1B in 6 years...HEE HEE!
That would be funny!
I think -- if one applies for H1b and the application is originally accepted. Then they are using the lottery -- to pick the lucky guy.
And if someone is not lucky then he goes to the next year pool...
you are right ... if someone is so unlucky it might take 6 years and more to get an H1b...
Guys who have EAD ... should feel really very lucky NOW....
