USCIS released the latest H-1B visa information on November 1, 2010. As of October 29, 2010, USCIS reported that 45,600 cap petitions had been filed and 16,700 spots for U.S. advanced degree holders have been filled.

On October 22, 2010, USCIS reported that 44,300 cap petitions had been filed and 16,200 spots for U.S. advanced degree holders have been filled. In Summary, from October 22 to October 29, about 1,800 more applications have been filed. We predict that H-1B availability will most likely cease sometime in January or February 2011 at the current pace.

However, please remember, those who receive a job offer from a governmental or non-profit organization will not count towards the general H-1B cap mentioned above. 

If you are interested in filing an H-1B petition and get sponsorship from your prospective employer, it is imperative that you act quickly. Please contact our experienced attorney staff at info@hooyou.com for a free evaluation. We will ensure that your application is handled promptly.
