I just earned my MBA from a state university. I also have a bachelor’s in chemistry. I found an employer to sponsor me for an H1B position in the upcoming lottery, but the position is related to my degree in Chemistry, not my MBA. Can I still qualify for the master’s cap?

Answer

To qualify for the master’s cap, one must have a master’s degree or higher from a qualifying U.S. university. This applies, even if you will not be using that degree to qualify for the H1B position. (04.Jan.2023)
