In this week’s Immigration Law for Tech Startups podcast, I’ll discuss everything you need to know to start getting ready for the upcoming H-1B lottery in March 2022, which is just around the corner. Whether you are running your company’s immigration program, or an employee seeking an H-1B, or you’re in another country looking to get your first H-1B to move to the U.S., now is the time to start preparing.
The lottery has shifted and it is now a year-round process. If you need an immigration attorney and you’re thinking about engaging with my practice, we would be delighted to support you. We are already underway with many H-1Bs for next year’s lottery. We would love to support all of our current clients and anybody new before the rush comes in Q1.
