Am I Exempt From H-1 Quota If Visa Was Not Stamped

Question details

My query is that whether my name which was sponsored by an IT company and come under quota (in 2008) could still be considered to remain as 'VALID' and 'UNUTILISED' under the year 2008 quota (and initial period 2008-2011). As no stamping of H1B took place in 2008, then can this be UTILIZED by any new employer/sponsor (under the 2008 quota) but with the validity starting from the date of stamping (e.g. 2016) and till subsequent years (as applicable). Can we say that this would be a case of stamping based upon PREVIOUS quota/approval and any new sponsor would NOT require to file a fresh H1B petition. So, only some MODIFICATION of the 2008 petition documents would required to be made by any new employer/sponsor.

Comment

I have done my H1B and PERM processing through Law Offices of Rajiv S Khanna. I got both of them approved. Their service is just great! and I am not into IT..Their whole process is very meticulous and thorough. They work with you diligently through the entire process. Rest assured everything that needs to be and can be done right is done right! I recently changed jobs and unfortunately, I had to go with my new employer's attorney and they have not paid attention to basics and filied recklessly and now I have an enquiry. I wish I had gone with Rajiv..
