USCIS UPDATES H-1B CAP COUNT FOR MAY 14, 2010 -- AT 19,000

As of May 14, 2010, approximately 19,000 H-1B cap-subject petitions were receipted by USCIS. Additionally, USCIS has receipted 8,100 H-1B petitions for applicants with advanced degrees. Still plenty of visas left, although there was an increase of over 1,000 applications in a few days. Interesting... we'll have to continue to monitor whether it's related to economic recovery or a fluke...
