H1b Visa

Published

Hi everyone, I completed my BSN studies here in the States, and possess a Texas RN compact licence. Does anyone know any hospital out there that is still willing to sponsor or file an H1b visa for foreign nurses being it that DHS is no longer offering H1c visas for nurses????????????? Please someone help me, i have one year to get it taken care of while on my OPT.

Thank you,

Will

New graduates are not eligible for H1Bs.

H1Bs are for specialist nurses, thus new grads do not qualify. Plus there are very few of them, competition is quite high - with the US economy what it is, hospitalss would have a hard time proving need for an H1B applicant.
