U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has begun sending H-1B cap selection notices to myUSCIS accounts and will continue doing so over the next few days, the agency said Thursday.
Background: Under a recently published regulation, the agency switched to a beneficiary-centric lottery this year, meaning each beneficiary can be selected only once, regardless of how many registrations were submitted on their behalf. While this change may lead to a higher selection rate, USCIS has not yet provided information on how many registrations were submitted or selected this year. BAL will provide updates as information becomes available.
