Is it possible to get an H1B visa as a freelancer?

[jhuda]

Hi, I am a non-STEM graduate currently on OPT starting July 15. I have job offers for short-term research projects (1-2 months per project) from different organizations. In such a case, is it possible to apply for H1B as a freelancer? (I doubt it but just wanted to put the question out there.) Or does one always need a single long-term employer for H1B visa?

I dont think you can apply H1 as a freelancer..the company in which you are working has to sponser(apply) your H1. and for your H1 approvals the company has to show that the project you are working is long term and extentable.
