H-1B1

H-1B1 visa for Chileans and Singaporeans

A certain number of  H-1B visas are reserved for citizens of Chile and Singapore each year.  This allows Chileans and Singaporeans to apply for the H-1B1 visa at any point during the year and thereby avoid the H-1B lottery in April.  Unlike the regular H-1B visa, the H-1B1 does not have a six-year limit, however it also does not allow for dual intent.
