Cap-Exempt H-1B Sponsors

Cap-exempt employers can sponsor H-1B visas without going through the annual H-1B lottery. This means they can file H-1B petitions at any time during the year, and there is no limit on the number of H-1B workers they can sponsor.

Who Is Cap-Exempt?

Universities and colleges — Institutions of higher education
Nonprofit research organizations — Affiliated with or related to institutions of higher education
Government research organizations — Federal, state, or local government research entities
Nonprofit entities — Connected to or affiliated with institutions of higher education

Note: Working for a cap-exempt employer does not make the H-1B status itself cap-exempt. If you later transfer to a cap-subject employer, you may need to go through the lottery.
