Understanding H1B Visa Rejection After Lottery Selection
Many applicants wonder about the chances of H1B rejection after being selected in the lottery. While winning the lottery is a significant first step, it doesn\“t guarantee visa approval. The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) carefully reviews each petition after selection.Several factors can lead to rejection during the adjudication process. Common reasons include incomplete documentation, discrepancies in the application, failure to meet educational or experience requirements, and issues with the employer\“s legitimacy. The petitioner must prove that the position qualifies as a specialty occupation and that the beneficiary meets all necessary criteria.
Recent data suggests that the overall rejection rate varies annually but typically ranges between 10% to 20% of selected petitions. However, this percentage can be higher for certain categories or if there are increased scrutiny measures in place. To minimize rejection risks, ensure all forms are accurately completed, supporting documents are thorough, and the petition strongly demonstrates compliance with H1B requirements.
