I am working for a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on OPT. Can they sponsor me for H1B as a cap-exempt employer?

Answer

Not all nonprofit firms qualify as cap-exempt. In general, only certain nonprofit or governmental research organizations, or nonprofits affiliated with a college or university, qualify as cap-exempt. (29.Jan.2018)
