FY 2018

USA: Upcoming H-1B season

The FY 2018 H-1B cap season will begin on Monday, April 3, 2017

Though the opening day of the filing period is still several months away, it is not too early for your organisation to begin assessing H-1B needs and working with your immigration team to begin the process.

Demand for new H-1Bs reached unprecedented levels last season and is expected to remain high in the FY 2018 season. For FY 2017, USCIS received 236,000 petitions against the annual quota of 85,000.
