USCIS UPDATES H-1B CAP COUNT FOR DECEMBER 31, 2010 -- AT 57,300

USCIS just issued another H-1B cap update -- as of December 31, 2010 they have received 57,300 H-1B petitions subject to the regular cap plus 20,000 under the advanced degree quota, which maximum for this fiscal year has been reached. With less than 8,000 visas left, we project that the H-1B exhaustion target date will be in the end of January or beginning of February at the latest. Better hurry and file now if you don't want to wait until October.
