H-1B Blessing Event 2026 | Hope for International Students

A prayer of hope, strength, and good fortune: sent on your behalf from India, while you build your future in the U.S.

With H-1B odds becoming tougher every year, many OPT students and early-career professionals are facing uncertainty like never before. When effort alone doesn’t feel like enough, a little faith and blessing can bring comfort—and sometimes, unexpected luck.

Let us carry your prayers to Chilkur Balaji Temple on your behalf, so you can stay focused on your life, work, and future here in the U.S.

You’ve done everything right: Studied hard, Fighting for a job, Followed the rules. Yet the outcome still depends on chance.

At moments like this, faith can offer something powerful — not guarantees, but peace, hope, and strength.

That’s why we created this blessing event.

We will:

Collect your personal prayer intentions
Make your individual prayer card
Personally, bring it to Chilkur Balaji Temple
Pray on your behalf, with care and sincerity

All while you remain in the U.S., continuing your OPT and career journey.

Over the last two years, thousands of participants from across the United States have joined our H-1B blessing event. While navigating their OPT and H-1B journeys, they received personalized blessings from the Chilkur Balaji Temple. We are honored to share that hundreds of our participants reported being selected in the lottery, and we hope the same good fortune awaits you.

This year, we are extending our support by offering weekly temple visits on your behalf throughout the prayer window. To give you peace of mind, you will also receive secure digital proof of the prayers offered specifically for you.

Sacred Venues

You stay at home, our representatives will bring your prayers to: Chilkur Balaji Temple, the original "Visa Temple" in Hyderabad, India.

Tailored for H1B Hopefuls

This event caters specifically to individuals in the U.S. aiming for success in the 2025 H-1B visa lottery.

Personalized Prayers

Our team will meticulously write down your wishes and prayers, presenting them at the chosen temple to seek blessings for your H-1B lottery application.

Photographic Memories

To ensure you're part of this spiritual journey, we will document the prayer sessions with photographs, providing a visual keepsake of the prayers offered on your behalf.

This is a community-focused charity event dedicated to supporting the Indian community in the U.S. who are seeking an H1B lottery selection and a brighter future. To ensure we prioritize those who cannot travel back to India for prayer. Participation is limited to registrants currently residing in the U.S. If you are presently in India, we kindly ask that you give this opportunity to those who are unable to return home for prayer during this important time.

No. There is no fee to join this event. Participation is completely free of cost. We will take care of bringing your prayer cards to the temple, pray for good luck on your behalf and provide proof. This is a community-driven initiative dedicated to supporting and uplifting the Indian immigrant community in the U.S.

No—and we want to be honest about that.

This event is about faith, hope, and emotional support—not promises.

Many participants from last year were selected, but outcomes always depend on the lottery system.

GoElite H1B Blessing 2026 runs from January 18 through March 31, continuing until the H1B lottery results are released.
