On April 5, 2019, USCIS reached the 65,000 H-1B visa regular cap for fiscal year 2020. On April 10, USCIS used a computer-generated random selection process to select enough H-1B petitions to meet the regular cap and the U.S. advanced degree exemption for fiscal year 2020. After completing the random selection process for the regular cap, USCIS also determined that it has received a number of petitions projected as sufficient to meet the 20,000 H-1B visa U.S. advanced degree exemption, also known as the master’s cap. Now we wait to see who was picked!
