H-1B’s are Going, Going, Gone!
Giselle Carson Jun 13, 2012 in Immigration News
If you have been keeping up with my H-1B cap updates, you know that this year new H-1B Visas have been used up at an accelerated rate. Just yesterday, USCIS announced that the 65,000 H-1B cap for FY 2013 had been reached and that it would be rejecting all petitions received after June 11. The 20,000 master’s exemption cap was also reached. This is a good sign of economy recovery but also a sign that this arbitrary cap should be revisited by Congress to allow talented foreign workers and U.S. educated students to contribute to our economy.
