H1B Visa 2012 – List of Consultants Who Sponsor H1B Visa

Raghuram Sukumar —  January 12, 2010 — 162 Comments

Many Happy Schools blog readers are asking for consulting companies who would apply for H1B Visa 2012 quota. H1B Visa quota for year 2011 reached on Jan 2, 2011.

There are so many comments from people who are trying to find contacts for consulting companies who can sponsor H1B Visa. Most of them who are trying to find consulting companies are not well informed about the H1B Visa 2012 process. They assume that posting in the blog and forums will get them a list of  consulting companies for their profile and get into US without effort.

H1B Visa 2012 -  Sponsoring Consultants

Hi, I am done Bachelors degree in MBC(Microbiology, Biochemistry and Chemistry) and I have Masters degree in Biotechnology. I did these in India. Now I am doing MS Environmental and Biological science in the US. One of friend suggested me that I can get a job with my M.Sc degree(India)in the US. is this true? Is my M.Sc Biotechnology enough to get a job in the US? If it is true can anyone one give me contacts for consultants who can sponsor H1b VISA. Please reply me.

I have hard time finding consultants for Mechanical Engineering students.If anyone could help me with this it would be great.

Can you please send me the H1B sponsors for clinical research associate

Thanks for all the valuable info. I am working on biomedical engineering and biomaterials. I would like to get the list of consulting agencies that have biomedical/pharmaceutical clients and would sponsor H1b. Any info would be greatly useful. Thanks in advance.

I see there are lot of comments asking about h1b sponsors so I request every one to share if they have any list or something, also I would like to request HSB to give us info about h1b sponsors/consultancies both in IT/NON IT sector

I completed Masters in US, my OPT 90 days of unemployment is going to expire, can I get list of consultants who can sponsor H1B Visa for 2010?

There are lot more comments similar to above comments.

H1B 2012 – Sponsors

  1. USCIS is not approving or issuing RFE on H1B Visa applications when submitted through consulting companies
  2. US Economy is in recession, there are many unemployed people searching for jobs.
  3. Not many jobs are available
  4. Recently 7  arrested due to H1B Fraud
  5. Immigration attorneys are saying that it’s very hard to respond to RFE’s requested by USCIS.
  6. Many have approved H1B Visa from last year (2010) through consulting companies are still in India, waiting for their employer to allow them go for stamping.
  7. Neufeld Memo requires employer to prove employer-employee relationship. Consulting companies are finding it hard to prove it.

H1B Visa 2012 – Predictions

It’s really hard to predict total number of application that will be submitted on April 1, 2011. It all depends on how economy improves in America during months of January, February and March.

Couple of years back, it was very easy to find consulting companies who will apply for H1B Visa, but that’s not the case anymore. Keep reading the news about unemployment rates in US and USCIS is cracking down on consulting companies that commit fraud.

Considering all above cases, chances of  finding a consultant who is willing to sponsor H1B Visa 2012 is will be difficult.  So, do you think you still want to find a consulting company and apply for H1B Visa? You may want to consult with an immigration attorney to find out options you have to stay in status.

Above question was sent while back, but it will apply to many readers who are considering to apply for H1B Visa 2012.

  7. First of all livin in US looks wonderful,but most indians sacrifice their hard earnings as tax just for a quality of life in the US.In a long run freedom for Independent business is better always in India in their respective native places than foreign lands.

    Thanks!

    • You pay taxes in India also! About the same rate, but the quality of life is not the same though it is improving. For the majority of the middle class the quality of life in US is not affordable in India. The only major disadvantage I would say is missing out on family.

  18. Hello,

    I am a graduate student in Masters of Teaching in the US. I will graduate in may 2010. When i graduate I will be certified to teach high school math. I will be applying for OPT before graduaion so i will be abe to work until 2011. I wanted to know if there is a different cap for H1B visas for post graduate people. Also is there is a separate quota for educators? Any info is helpful. Thanks

    AA

    • Aadhikary – there is a separate quota of 20,000 H-1Bs for people with US master's degrees. There is no separate quota for educators. However, some teachers are not subject to the H-1B cap if they will work for a non-profit organization affiliated with an institute of higher education.

  19. I am on student F1 visa doing master. now working with consultant company. my status is OPT now (got 17 month OPT Extention).I am going to apply fot H1 this year with consultancy. will it be possible for me to file H1?

  20. H-1B approvals for consulting companies are going to be much rarer after CIS issued a new memo and FAQ this week. See here for a summary of the memo: http://martinvisalaw.blogspot.com/2010/01/cis-iss…. FAQs are here: http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5

  21. i m planning to give GRE in may or june this year. i want to ask all of you a question that if a person appears for GRE in two successive years or more than once in a span of 5 years, which GRE score will be considered? the highest one or the average of the all scores. if anyone knows please reply.. thanking you all.

    • Hi deeps, it usually depends on the university you are applying for…some take the average of both, some take the best score….there is will not be a official confirmation from the ETS (the organization conducting GRE and TOEFL etc) regarding which score should be taken into consideration…its purely at the discretion of the university…you can get this information by calling the university academic coordinator….ATB.

  22. Hi all

    i have a h1b visa working in US ,please provide me consultant names who can do a h1b transfer as my project is about to end.

    thanks

  23. I will completed my graduation in September so In which month I can apply for masters in USA?

    • Andrie Tanusetiawan February 25, 2010 at 7:18 PM

      Hi Praful,

      Different schools have different policies. In general, to start in the Fall semester, the application needs to be filed in January. To start in the Spring semester, the semester usually needs to be filed in around June.

      Jesus bless you,

  24. Does USCIS does the background checks and verification (in all terms i.e. education, job experience etc) for H1B visa applicantion?

    • Andrie Tanusetiawan February 25, 2010 at 11:21 PM

      Hi bg,

      From what I heard, USCIS usually checks for whether your qualifications (mostly your education, and also your job experience) match the requirements of the job. Usually, at least a Bachelor’s degree is needed to apply for H-1B visa.

      Jesus bless you,

    • Dear Narendra,

      Especially if u need good colleges on biotechnology, GRE Score of around 1050+ is must and i suggest you to take your GRE in the months of June,July. It makes you easier after you finish your exams.
