psycopk Posted April 9, 2009 Report Posted April 9, 2009 The USCIS announced on April 8, 2009 that the H1B cap for fiscal year (FY) 2010 has not been reached. Thus, as of this writing the USCIS is still accepting H1B cap subject cases. This is very good news for everyone with H1B cases filed during the five business day period between April 1 and April 7, 2009. This announcement applies to both the advanced-degree cap for those with U.S. master’s degrees or higher, as well as the regular cap for all other H1B cases. The USCIS only indicated that they are still accepting cases as of April 8, 2009. They did not provide any indication as to the number of cases that were filed in the first five business days, or how many cap numbers remain. Thus, there is no way to know when either cap will be reached. We at the Murthy Law Firm will continue to closely monitor the status of H1B cap for FY2010, and will update readers as information becomes available.
