FAQ
Why does H-1B selection happen through lottery?
The short answer is that there are more people applying for the H-1B visa than there are visas available. To learn more, you can read our article about the process and an employee's odds of getting picked.
Myth 1: The H-1B Lottery is not random
Untrue. The H-1B lottery is totally random. As the process stands now, USCIS does not cherry-pick applications based on any criteria.
Myth 2: The H-1B Lottery selection depends on an employee's salary
This has been untrue in the past. This may be a deciding factor under the new administration for the FY2026 lottery selection in the year 2025.
Myth 3: The H-1B Lottery selection depends on the employee's location
Again, this has been untrue until the year 2024 lottery selection. This may be a deciding factor along with the location if the new administration passed new regulations that impact the FY2026 lottery selection in the year 2025.
