Question

Actually I got rejected for student visa in december 2006, and I have just specified my graduation at the time of applying for student visa, but the problem is I have done my masters in MCA, and my Question is can I now apply for H1B visa for US?

Answer 1

From what I have heard its very difficult to get H1B approved even with support from an employer if you are abroad. I think it will be easier if you come to US first.

Answer 2

If you are eligible for an H1 then yes  you can, however you first need an employer in the U.S. to sponsor you and the file the intital paperwork - without an employer you are not able to do anything.
