Are Many H-1Bs Exempted From the Yearly Limit?
The short answer is YES H-1B visas issued per year have a yearly limit commonly called the “visa cap”. H-1B visa holders that apply for an extension of their visas have always been exempt from the yearly limit. As an example of how this works, in the year 2001 there was 195,000 new visas issued that were subject to the visa cap.
