and health, accounting, and the arts, as well as information technology.

An employer is required to state or demonstrate that a USA worker will not be displaced by the H-1B applicant. In addition to the H-1B workers, up to 20,000 non-U.S. residents who earn a master's degree or higher from a U.S. institution
