December 14, 2021 | xpath.global

Preparing for the H-1B Cap Season for FY 2023

The H-1B cap season for FY 2023 has kicked off, bringing with it heightened demand for skilled foreign workers.

Employers should proactively initiate arrangements for H-1B visas, anticipating stiff competition for talent amid multiple job offers.

Understanding the H-1B Cap Process

Registrations for both bachelor’s and advanced degree holders typically exceed available cap-subject H-1B visas, a trend likely to continue next year.

Key Dates and Procedures

In the lead-up to April 1, petitioners must electronically register each potential H-1B candidate for cap-subject visas.

While USCIS has yet to announce registration dates, the process has historically opened in March for the past two years.

Following the selection of registrations in the lottery, petitioners will have a 90-day window starting April 1 to submit complete H-1B petitions.

Transitioning into the H-1B visa for FY 2023, employers face the challenge of securing skilled foreign talent amidst heightened competition. Proactive preparation and understanding of key dates and procedures are crucial for navigating this process effectively. With registrations typically outnumbering available visas, employers must be strategic in their approach to maximize their chances of securing H-1B visas for their candidates. Stay tuned for further updates on registration dates from USCIS as the cap season progresses.
