H-1B Cap reached for fiscal year 2007

H-1B Cap Reached for Fiscal Year 2007 - On June 1, 2006 Immigration announced that as of May 26, 2006, they had received sufficient petitions to exhaust the H-1B allocation for fiscal year 2007. What this means in practical terms is that unless Congress acts to increase the H-1B quota, as has been proposed in the Senate's recently passed Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill, there will be no more new H-1B visas available until October 1, 2007. Stay tuned for further developments.
