Immigration Law Success Stories
January 21, 2011

The immigration law allows an individual who is working in H-1B status for a cap-exempt H-1B employer to apply for and obtain authorization for additional part-time H-1B employment with a cap-subject H-1B employer without being subject to the H-1B cap.  So long as the H-1B employee is maintaining the H-1B cap exempt employment, the individual can be authorized to work for both employers.  Our Philadelphia immigration lawyers were asked to file such a petition for a researcher who had discovered a new drug that was being developed by a start-up pharmaceutical company.  The start-up pharmaceutical company wanted to employ the researcher directly for 10-15 hours per week in addition to his full-time University researcher position.  We filed the petition explaining that it should not be subject to the H-1B cap and the petition was approved.
