USCIS UPDATES COUNT OF FY 2008 H-1B CAP FILINGS
WASHINGTON – U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services (USCIS) announced an updated number of
filings today as the counting of H-1B petitions
received on April 2 and 3 continues. On April 3,
USCIS announced that it had received enough petitions
to meet the congressionally mandated cap for fiscal
year2008 (FY 2008) and that it would conduct a
computer-generated random selection of cap-subject petitions
filed on Monday (April 2) and Tuesday (April 3) to determine
which cases would be accepted for processing.
As of April 9, USCIS has determined that approximately
119,193 of the H-1B petitions received on April 2
and 3 are subject to the FY 2008 congressionally mandated cap.
USCIS received on April 2 and 3 a total of approximately
12,989 cases requesting an exemption from the FY
2008 H-1B cap because they were filed on behalf of aliens
holding a master’s degree or higher from a U.S.
institution. USCIS can now announce that the cap of 20,000
on these exempt cases remains open and that
USCIS will continue to monitor these filings.
USCIS will provide regular updates as the processing of
FY 2008 H-1B cap cases continues.
H-1B in General: U.S. businesses use the H-1B program to
employ foreign workers in specialty
occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise
in fields, such as scientists, engineers or computer
programmers. As part of the H-1B program, the Department
of Homeland Security (DHS) and the
Department of Labor (DOL) require U.S. employers to meet
specific labor conditions to ensure that
American workers are not adversely impacted,
while DOL’s Wage and Hour Division safeguards the
treatment and compensation of H-1B workers.
