Hi Peter. Seems like I just lost the H-1B lottery, what other options do I have to stay working in the USA (I'm currently on a J-1 visa)? I already have a master's degree, and would not like to go back to school. Thank you in advance.
The options are very limited but the default options are an O-1 petition or a green card application (where there is no backlog in the category such that you can file an I-485 and work authorization applications immediately).
