USCIS will Continue to Accept Fiscal Year 2010 H-1B Petitions

April 8, 2009

On April 8, 2009 the USCIS Announced that it Will Continue to Accept FY2010 Petitions as Fiscal Year Quota Has Not Yet Been Reached

The USCIS announced that as of April 8, 2009, it will continue to accept petitions towards the FY2010 H-1B quota. The USCIS estimates that it has received approximately half of the petitions needed towards the general H-1B quota, and that it is just short of reaching the number of petitions towards the Master's quota. Additionally, it announced that the fifteen (15) calendar day period for premium processed petitions began on April 7, 2009. On April 8, 2009, the USCIS began issuing receipts for all FY2010 H-1B cases received between April 1, 2009 and April 8, 2009.
