Hi,
My girlfriend is currently on OPT applying for a new H1B visa from the Virginia Centre. She received a request for evidence from the centre asking to demonstrate that her job as an "applications developer" qualifies as a specialty occupation.
She has a masters degree in C.S. and is working as a software engineer. So, her job is directly related to her degree.
Has anyone encountered such a query? If so, what was the response and outcome?
Has the BCIS stopped considering software engineer as a specialty occupation? If so, can anyone other than nurses apply and benefit from the H1B category?
Thanks
