Choosing between the H-1B visa and the L-1B visa can be a game-changing decision for software engineers aiming to work in the United States in 2025. Both visas offer unique advantages—but they differ in eligibility, application process, and long-term benefits.

In this episode, we break down the key differences between H-1B and L-1B visas so you can make an informed choice. You’ll discover:

  • Eligibility requirements for each visa type.

  • How the H-1B lottery works and who qualifies for cap-exempt positions.
