United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has officially declared that the allocated quota for H-1B visas for fiscal year 2024 has been met.
USCIS has stopped accepting H-1B visa petitions for fiscal year 2024, with limited exceptions for exempt cases and current H-1B workers. In the next few days, USCIS plans to notify registrants who were not selected through their online accounts.
While meeting the cap triggers a halt for most H-1B candidates, USCIS will continue processing petitions eligible for exemptions.
H-1B program enables U.S. companies to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. USCIS encourages petitioners to subscribe for H-1B cap season updates and information.
Reaching the visa limit this early for fiscal year 2024 will impact many international students and workers hoping to remain in the U.S.
