this is for US employers who want to
00:07
temporarily employ foreign workers in a
00:09
specialty occupation role at the basic
00:12
level this requires a job offer from a
00:15
u.s. employer in a specialty occupation
00:18
role that requires at least a bachelor’s
00:20
degree or equivalent in a specialized
00:23
field and that the potential employee
00:25
possesses at least a u.s. bachelor’s
00:28
degree or equivalent in that specialized
00:31
field so when we say equivalent we mean
00:33
if not a u.s. bachelor’s degree then a
00:36
foreign degree equivalent to a four-year
00:39
u.s. bachelor’s degree or a combination
00:41
of education training and experience
00:43
that equates to a u.s. bachelor’s degree
00:46
moreover if you’ve never held an h-1b
00:48
visa before you will most likely be held
00:51
to an h-1b lottery each year the US
00:55
government allocates 85,000 new visas of
00:59
that 20,000 are set aside for u.s.
01:03
master’s degree holders or higher
01:05
typically there are more than 85,000
01:07
people that are interested so every
01:09
April the US government holds a lottery
01:12
to allocate those visas
