USCIS Mini Update on April 15, 2009 for H-1B Visas in FY2010

Immigration News

As at today the 20,000 extra cap for US Masters Degree holders has now been exhausted but the USCIS is still accepting applications for the 65,000 general H-1B visa quota.

Of course those with US Master Degrees who are applying now or previously and not approved under the extra quota will go into the general quota.

Things like the Premium processing cost for H-1B visas would have been less useful this year given the lack of filling of the annual quota at this stage.

As always we give foreigners our best recommendations for findings jobs in the current economic downturn.

    Hi Mahesh,
    Using your case number you can look up the USCIS website to see your petition status. If your petition is approved which it should be if everything is in order given the quota is not reached, you should know ened of April/early May judging by passed years.
