The second H-1B lottery for 2025 is a process by which the U.S. government randomly selects 65,000 H-1B visas from among all eligible petitions filed during the first lottery. The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows U.S. employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations.
The second H-1B lottery is important because it provides an opportunity for employers to hire foreign workers who have the skills and qualifications that are not readily available in the U.S. workforce. The lottery also helps to ensure that the H-1B visa program is fair and transparent.
