H-1B: Completing and Submitting a FY 2009 H-1B Cap Case

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) uses the information in Part C of the H-1B Data Collection and Filing Fee Exemption Supplement (Form I-129, page 11) to determine whether a petition is subject to the 65,000 and 20,000 (U.S. master’s degree or higher) H-1B numerical limitation caps.  Please be sure to read these questions and answers carefully in advance of completing the petition.

Please visit our website frequently for filing updates or call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283 for up-to-date information.
