USCIS is notifying the public that yesterday, Nov. 22, 2011, was the final receipt date for new H-1B specialty occupation petitions requesting an employment start date in FY 2012.”
Alternatives for those who missed the deadline include determining whether the employer can qualify as exempt from the numerical limitation or examining alternative non-immigrant categories for foreign nationals.
