“One consultancy in Hyderabad is offering H1B Visa for 4 Lack. What is actual cost of H1B Visa sponsorship this year.? I decided to pay it. Can i know is it worth paying 4 lacks fee for H1B Visa? ” I got this question from one guy recently. So, though of writing about Cost of H1B Visa.
Cost of H1B Visa
H1B Visa application cost to the employer only 1- 1.5 lacks. H1B Visa cost involves two parts. One is actual H1B visa Petition fee and the other part is Lawyer fee. If you need H1B Petition in Premium Processing you need pay $1225 extra. Lawyer will charge around $500 (25,000). So, by any chance H1B cost won’t go beyond 2 – 2.5 lacks. Consultancy guy is just faking the H1b Rates. He want to make money out of it.
H1B Visa Fraud

Company (consultancy) asking money from employee is ILLEGAL. Also, Paying for H1B is NOT LEGAL.
