FAQs
What is the H-1B visa, and who is it for?
The H-1B visa allows US employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise in fields such as IT, engineering, finance, healthcare, and education. It is designed for employees with at least a bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
When is the H-1B lottery, and how does it work?
The H-1B lottery occurs annually, typically in March. Employers register their candidates with the USCIS during the designated registration window. A randomized selection process then determines which candidates can proceed to submit their full H-1B petition. Deel simplifies this process by handling the registration and case management for employers.
What costs are involved in sponsoring an H-1B visa?
Employers are responsible for paying government filing fees, attorney fees, and compliance-related costs. Deel offers a streamlined sponsorship process with transparent pricing to ensure compliance while managing costs efficiently. Contact us for a detailed quote based on your specific needs.
What happens if my employee is not selected in the H-1B lottery?
If your candidate is not selected, Deel can help explore alternative options, such as other visa types (e.g., O-1, TN, L-1) or international placements through Deel Employer of Record (EOR) in other countries. Our immigration specialists will work with you to identify the best solution.
How does Deel support companies without a US entity?
If your company doesn’t have a US entity, Deel can act as the Employer of Record (EOR) to sponsor the H-1B visa on your behalf. We handle everything, from employee onboarding to compliance, allowing you to focus on growing your business while accessing global talent.
