H-1B ‘speciality’ visas can be granted to computer programmers, says American court

In this case, heard by the appellate court, Innova Solutions had sought to hire an Indian citizen to work as a computer programmer. The H-1B visa application was denied by USCIS. A US employer who wants to sponsor staffers under the H-1B programme has to show that the position requires “theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialised knowledge”.
