| USCIS reports number of H-1B filings |
| published 12 April 2006 |
| The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has begun to report on the number of H-1B petitions received for fiscal year 2007. The report indicates that, as of April 3, 2006, USCIS had received 1,631 H-1B petitions eligible for the primary H-1B numbers and 340 petitions covered by the H-1B Advanced Degree Exemption. Note that these numbers only include H-1B petitions actually processed and entered into USCIS's database as of April 3rd; this does not capture H-1B petitions in the USCIS mailroom awaiting processing. USCIS will update these numbers until the H-1B cap has been reached. Please note that a link to the USCIS' H-1B cap count can be found on the Quick Access Tools drop down menu on our home page. |
