I just wanted to contribute about the huge misunderstanding we have about the non-profit organization and cap exempt H1-B. If it is university or a hospital, you are all set. If it is other type of non-profit organization or institution, then the organization MUST be the one which is involved in primary research. For example, getting a job at a NGO that is entirely devoted to grassroots public service or advocacy for some public interest campaigns without conducting any primary research would not be cap exempt even if the organization is non-profit.
