Hi
Got a teaching job in an US university. Is this information about H1B visas true:

The yearly quota of H1B visas does not apply to foreign workers seeking employment at a) institutions of higher education (e.g. Universities), b) nonprofit organizations, and c) government research organizations. Meaning that these three types of employers do not have to comply to the limitation and have the freedom to hire indiscriminately without any restrictions.

Thanks in advance.

This is a Canada lifestyle forum - I suggest you ask in one of the US immigration/visa forums.

Not exactly true, they still have to pay fee's to sponsor like everyone else, but they can have some of the fee's waived...but the main advantage is that they don't come under the quota.
