Not sure I understand the question. Employer indicates they want to provide any supporting documentation necessary. This is better than the UK court service, who have now stated in writing that they do not keep records that far back that are easily accessible. It has taken them four months to say this.

UPDATE: Visa waiver required, but sent back to DoHS with recommendation to approve. This is the most that the Consular Officer could do, short of approving there and then. Employer's attorney is on it, although they comment that the recommendation to approve means limitations on providing supporting documentation. Employer has immediately indicated that this is what they want to do.

UPDATE: The H1B application has been approved/granted by USCIS at the employer end. I await delivery of the original document confirming this which will arrive next week. Following that I will schedule the embassy interview, and that's where I think the knockback will happen. It was wise to be up-front with the employer. I have asked to consult with their immigration attorney before the interview.

OK - so no, you don't get asked to do a medical for an H1B...?

Do you have to do a medical for an H1B? All the indications are that the answer is "no" to this for a nonimmigrant visa. I asked someone who is in the US from the UK on an H1B, and they said the following: "No, you do not need to do a medical or drug test for obtaining an H1B visa if you are traveling from the UK ... the H1B visa application process involves various steps such as filing the Labor Condition Application (LCA), submitting the petition to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and attending an interview at a U.S. consulate or embassy, but it does not include a medical or a drug test as a requirement." Does that resonate with anyone here on the forum - i.e. is it correct?

I've applied for the ACRO certificate, and am going to talk with the company.

That is the other thing that came up this weekend - I just assumed that after 20 years (and with the altered ESTA question) it was all processed. It's more of a mess than I realised. This would be better if the ESTA question was clearer.

No, I haven't mentioned it to the employer; it was 30 years ago and blanked by the UK. It only occurred to me this weekend when I started looking the visa up. I could...?

Not subject to the cap, I'm a 'specialist' by experience and education.

30 years ago I had a custodial sentence of 3.5 years in the UK for attempted robbery. I have now been offered a job in the U.S. that would be covered by an H1-B. Am I ineligible, can anything be done. It was 30 years ago. I was 20 at the time. The UK conviction was spent in 2000, so 20 years ago.
