Who is qualified for H-1B classification?

To qualify for a specialty occupation position, the applicant normally must possess the degree required for the position. If the applicant does not possess the required degree, he or she may still qualify for the position based on experience that is equivalent to the completion of the required degree. If the applicant possesses a foreign degree, the applicant must prove that the foreign degree is equivalent to a U.S. degree. This equivalency can be established if a qualified expert provides an evaluation showing that the foreign degree is equal to a U.S. degree as awarded by U.S. universities. If a state license is required to perform duties in the specialty occupation, the applicant must possess this license at the time the petition is filed.
