H-1B CAP HAS BEEN REACHED FOR FY-2010

As of December 21, 2009, USCIS has received enough H-1B petitions to reach the statutory cap for 2010.

FY-2011 begins October 1, 2010 and cases for that start date will be accepted by the USCIS on April 1, 2010.  Also, many categories of employers and beneficiaries are not subject to the cap for various reasons so a consultation with a qualified immigration lawyer would be recommended to determine options that may be available.
