What is a cap-exempt H-1B?

The cap-exempt H-1B visa category allows certain U.S. employers to sponsor foreign nationals for H-1B visas without being subject to the annual H-1B numerical limitations, commonly known as the H-1B cap. Unlike the regular H-1B category, which is limited by an annual quota set by the U.S. government, the cap-exempt category does not have a numerical limit and can accept applications year-round.
