H- work visa

The United States has a quota of 65,000 H work visas every year. There are still 20,000 places for those with a master's degree or above. That is to say, if you graduate from undergraduate courses, you have a chance of 1/65000 to get H 1B; if you have a master's degree or above, you have a chance of 1/45000 to get H 65,500.

This amount is paid every June 1, but applications are accepted from April 1.
