The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows U.S. employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. The H-1B lottery is a random selection process used by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to allocate H-1B visas. For the fiscal year 2025, the H-1B lottery will open on March 1, 2024, and close on March 17, 2024.
The H-1B lottery is an important tool for U.S. employers who need to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations. The lottery helps to ensure that these employers have access to the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy. The H-1B lottery also provides foreign workers with an opportunity to work in the United States and gain valuable experience.
