When will the H1B season for fiscal 2016 begin ?
USCIS will accept petitions for H1B Visa 2016 season starting from April 1st, 2015. USCIS did a press release on March 12th outlining the details. Read summary of press release by USCIS on H1B 2016 .
Will there be lottery again for H1B Visa 2016 ? Predictions ?
We had lottery for FY 2015 and FY 2014. The total number of petitions filed for FY 14 were about 125,000 and for FY 2015, there were about 172,500 petitions… As H1B Quota did not increase for FY 2016, and the demand does not seem to decrease, we would very likely have lottery for FY 2016. Read H1B Visa 2016 Lottery Predictions, Dates, Results
What is the H1B Visa quota Cap Count ? Would there be any changes to H1B 2016 count ?
H1B Visa quota cap count is the total number of petitions that USCIS will accept for a fiscal year to provide temporary work permit for highly skilled workers. For the 2016 fiscal year, the cap count is as below :
- Regular H1B Quota : 65,000
- H1B Masters Degree Quota ( only US Degrees) : 20,000
- Out of the above, a total of 6,800 is usually set aside for Singapore and Chile citizens as part of the free trade agreement between them.
As per the press release in March 2015, the quota did not increase. To give some background, as per the Obama executive action in Nov 2014, no changes were announced to the H1B Cap count. There was proposal in 2013 to increase H1B cap from 65,000 to 110,000 and Masters quota to increase from 20,000 to 25,000 did not go through as of March 2015. At least, for this FY 2016 season, the quota is fixed and it will be as above and no changes.
When should I start planning for H1B Visa 2016 ? What are the steps ?
It depends on your situation. Below are few scenarios and your plan.
- If you are a student on F1 Visa in USA, you need to plan for your internship/ CPT or OPT employment at a company that can sponsor your H1B Visa for FY 2016. In my view, you should start now to find something for the fall 2014 and continue that for next spring so that you can file for FY 2016
- If you are in other country and planning for H1B, it is good to start your process around the end of this year 2014. It will give you enough time to find sponsors, search for job, etc.
- If you are on H4, L1 or other visa in USA and planning for H1B for FY 2016, you also should consider looking around end of this year i.e. December 2014.
We have published step by step plan, you can read the article How to plan for H1B Visa 2016 ?Step by Step Guide
Most asked Question – How do I Find H1B Sponsors for FY 2016 ?
This is a million dollar question ! One of the biggest challenges is to find a good sponsor that can offer you a job and wait for you to start work after 6 months of filing your petition. You should review the detail article on How to find H1B Sponsors for FY 2015. Your first place of start is to find the H1B Sponsors in an area or by company. Use our H1B Visa Sponsors Database to search and filter. Read this article on details on how to search in our H1B Sponsor database. We keep the database updated as DOL publishes data. Do NOT share your email or phone number on our website as comments, there are many people do H1B Sponsorship fraud by requesting money using your contact info. RedBus2US.com never provides personal guidance on H1B sponsors or seeks money from anyone, we only display publicly available data on our H1B Sponsors Database page. We DO NOT sponsor H1Bs or guide anyone. Beware of H1B sponsorship Fraud !
What about Comprehensive Immigration Reform ( CIR) – H1B Visa Changes ? What are they ?
There have been some proposed changes to the H1B Visa program to cater to the demand in the US economy as part of the Comprehensive Immigration reform. Below are some of the proposed changes.
- H1B Cap to be increased from 65,000 to 110,000 per year. Also have provisions to have it up to 180,000 in case of extreme demand.
- Advanced degree from US cap quota to increase from 20,000 to 25,000
- The Filing fee for H1B could go up to 10,000 USD
- Additional H1B rules to avoid H1B Visa fraud by employers
- Mandatory LCA posting for 30 days before it is certified.
These were proposed in 2013, but nothing has moved significantly and all the above are just proposed rules. We are not sure when they will be implemented. You can read Summary of CIR – Immigration reform – H1B Visa and Green Card to get an idea. The latest update is that Obama has taken executive action on Immigration in Nov 2014 and none of the below are included as part of that. Stay tuned for updates.
H1B Visa 2016 Fees – Any changes ? How much does it cost ?
There are various components of the fee. The H1B Application filing fee could range anywhere from $1,600 USD to $4,400 depending on the size of the company. The attorney fee can range from $500 to $3000 depending on the attorney. If you apply for premium processing that is another $1,225. The fees has not changed in the past couple of years for FY 2014 and FY 2015. Unless USCIS revises fee based on immigration reform, it should be same. We will keep you all posted. For complete details of the fee by components and break up, read the article H1B Visa Fees and Who Pays for What ?
H4 Visa EAD rule impact on H1B Visa 2016 Season ?
As you know, certain H4 visa holders are now eligible for EAD. The H4 Visa EAD Rule Passed earlier in 2015 and is effective from May 26, 2015. USCIS will start accepting applications for EAD from those eligible H4 visa holders starting from May 26th. The question is that will that have an impact on number of H1B petitions for this fiscal year ? It very likely will have certain impact on the number of H1B applications that are filed for this year 2016 quota. Many of the H4 holders, who would now be eligible for EAD, may not apply for H1B visa, just because it gives them more flexibility to work and more choices to work as well. We would have to wait and see, how much of an impact that would have, but it is very straightforward and no brainer for eligible H4 visa holder to avoid the H1B processing.
H1B visa Premium Processing Changes to H1B Visa 2016 quota ?
USCIS updated in their press release that the premium processing will be accepted for FY 2016 quota and they will only begin that “no later than May 11, 2015”. What it means for the petitioners is that the official 15 day premium processing clock starts from May 11th, 2015 and their petition could be adjudicated within 15 days from May 11th, which would be May 26th, 2015. USCIS can process them earlier as well, but their new timeline is just indication for setting the right expectations to meet the stipulated time frame for premium processing.
Track H1B Visa 2016 Cap Count updates ?
As in previous years, we have created a page, where would track the cap count updates for FY 2016. You may check out H1B visa 2016 Cap Count Tracker.

Yesterday a friend, also AD/RP/Vermont got her receipt (please don’t ask me for her receipt number, I don’t know and I’m not going to ask her). But I also have a few other friends (AD/RP) who are waiting, just like me. Assuming it will take some time for most of us to know since Vermont recently started issuing AD/PP and non-AD/PP receipts.
just now my friend got form his company, he is selected Non AD/RP
From which centre, could you pls share the reciept number?

Friends
Anyone know about the RP PP from CSC ? I have seen the results are out for the RP PP.
Any more updates on it ?
Are there still receipts being sent to AD/PP/VT?
Got mine on April 20 from vermont processing center, NON AD, PP. Good luck to everyone else. By d way, i am from NYC.
I have got mine selected in lottery but I still come on this blog to support all of you friends. Please stay hopeful things will work out. I guess there is definitely something in that lottery algo to consider each company and give random percentage , this is only my assumption. As last time my company filed 2 and 1 got selected (not me ) and this year they filed 1 (me) and I got picked. Not sure how all this is working. Now I am waiting eagerly for my husband’s result we still dont know if he is picked or not 🙁 and his company has filed I guess more than 10 this year. This is just a guess.
I hope you are right, my company filed the application for me only, this wait is driving me crazy
Btw, when did you receive the news? Are you Ad/NOn ad? Which center?
My company has filled only one application as well. I’m non-ad/rp, what’s yours? Let’s keep track of this post to figure out if the slgo considers each company.
Wipro guys…..any news from our GIMS.
any receipts for RP
I believe Vermont has sent receipt till EAC1513752530 (Generated on 16th Apr), It could be as of now around 11K PP (AD/Non AD) receipts are already sent till yesterday.
Remaining yet to be send may be around 5 – 6K receipts for PP again it includes both AD/Non AD.
Hi SMK,
What about the Regular processing applications which are submitted to VT center ? When can we expect the applications to be picked and notifications sent ?
– KC
I believe for regular process the receipts itself not completely generated yet in VSC
Can you please tell me does this mean that the Regular Processing applications are still being processed ??
How much percentage of applications are selected in regular processing ???
Any body hearing about the RP PP from CSC ? I heard few our friends received the Receipt Number.
I am still waiting. Is there any hope for the RP PP ?
Experts please comment …..
ANY UPDATE AD/RP TX ?
+1
Any hope ? Non AD/PP

not possible to know with LCA number..
V have to wait for USCIS to communicate with Employer/attorney who is in charge.
Employee : H1b result இன்னைக்கு வருமா ? ..
Employer : வரும் தம்பி…. ஆனா வராது …
Employee : எப்போ தான் வரும் ???
Employer : உங்க கிட்ட சொல்லும் போது வரும் ..
Employee : எப்போ சொல்லுவீங்க ??
Employer: வரும்போது சொல்லுவோம் ..
Employee: உங்களுக்கும் ஒன்னும் தெரியாத ?? நான் Obama ta பேசிக்கறேன்
USCIS : என்னட அங்க சத்தம்.. சத்தம் கேட்ட petition வெளியே வீசிருவேன் ..
Employee & Employer: சும்மா பேசிட்டு இருக்கோம் மாமா !! .. நீங்க பொறுமையா செய்தி அனுப்புங்க .. நாங்க காத்து இருப்போம் ..
Lol,
வாவ் சூப்பர் மாமா
Super appuuu!!!! 🙂
@Bobby:
Look at this stats bro..
http link :
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-1B_visa#Employers_ranked_by_H-1B_visas_approved
Dont forget to watchout numbers approved for big players of Indian IT sector.
One company has got wooping 6,298 @ h1bvisa2013..
Does the SEVIS change when you are NOT on an OPT? I’m on an F1, can I expect a change in SEVIS?
Guys, I am like one of you folks waiting with tons of hope to see my 3rd attempt is SU…..
I got a question – In 2013 lottery, my company files some big number of applications and 50% of it got picked up in lottery and remaining 50% rejected. By mid of May, I asked them an update and they said ‘We got expected number of applications selected and it is more unlikely to expect positive result here after’. I came to know my bad luck in JUne 1st week
In 2014 Lottery – They filed 5000 applications.. 2500 got selected and 2500 got rejected. I asked them an update by mid of May 2015.. They said same thing ”We got expected number of applications selected and it is more unlikely to expect positive result here after’. I came to know my bad luck in JUne 1st week’
If it is lottery, how can they say that ‘We got expected number of applications selected’.. It is a lottery.. All 5000 may get selected or all 500 may get rejected.. How every 50% of apps got selected and the says they dont expect any more after 50%…..
I asked this questions but trust me no reply from them…… I am worried about losing in lottery… If I lose, any of my brother or sister got a chance in this country got a chance to go.. there is always next time…
But lose should be genuine…….. Are these IT companies have some under ground links with USCIS to get their required number to get selected or this is genuine…?
Any of guys noted this kind of????????
5000 Application from ur company dont you its too much..
Insted of increaing the CAP, there should be CAP for each company.
based on there company business, like outsourcing company 500 application, product company 100 application.
But bad luck i cant make rule.. just wait for lottery.. and keep thinking +tive till nexy year
@Bobby: Chil bro, I know a company who filed 10,000 applications this year. Increase in number of applications is because of these comapanies filing apps for everyone and also duplicate filing to increase lottery chances.
But these can’t be changed. Victims because of these are trying for 3rd time, 4th time this year.
Obviously .. it is .. !!
but, it would be secret and it wont be disclosed any time in near future also.
To answer for your questions:
i assume, uscis would not do any such things like allocating seats for big bucks. Bcos we are ducks laying golden eggs for them, who would they want to allocate seats based on favor. To whom ever it is being given, its their profit.
and one more thing, we could say give a rough guess that each company gets around maximum 40% and minimum 20%.
3/10 will get visa in RP, that translates to 1 out of 3 selected and 2 out of 3 rejected.
It needs numeric predictions based on numbers out there on net and following up news..
Developed nations gets afraid, that outsiders may take their opportunity and development .. but, the fact is, when ppl from developing nations step into developed nation. They work for betterment for developed nations, with or without their knowledge in all aspects.”So, immigration should be globally approved, without any lottery system in place based on skills and requirement. ”
If USA wants to be global leader, it should start thinking wider and get rid of lottery system asap.
And more over, i would not recommend you to wait for H1b one more year. Just look for opportunities around globe, dont stuck to USA alone.
Indians skills are in high demand across globe. mainly Europe , UK, Australian and Germany..
Remember H1B is not the only one world that we have to live..
Your persistent attempts adores me !!
Any how all the best for your 3rd attempt..
@yes_its_fishy – Correct. I would say this 3rd attempt will be my one last ride for H1 B……… If it has failed, I have to look for other country projects.
Fingers crossed. Let’s see
@SomethingisFishy: All the best 🙂 🙂 and my best wishes for you , 3rd attempt will turn out very positive one for u..
Thanks alot. If it is positive, that is a big relief for me after 3 long years…. I will send chocolates to you 🙂 for sure…….:)
Wishes to you tooo
@somethingisfishy: Thanks for your wishes too.. 🙂 🙂 Lets do cheers for sure.. irrespective of result.
This is what me and my frnd have decided.
You can also join us.. 🙂
Bro i no your company name , i think that is wirpo 🙂
Yes last year i have called GIMS so many times and they told me wait till may second week but on may 15 they said like they got the number what they expected . That means selcted applications number is more than what they expected .
Hope this year i will get for sure .
Actually i from a processor company , not from service based.
If the company you have mentioned has capability to get to know the expected case numbers. It is great to know , they have analysed it very well.. Appreciate that 🙂 , they have not given you false hope..
This might not be case for everyone and every other company. There are few indian companies which provides final result during August month, that would keep the employee guessing .. !!
Correct. Let’s wait and see what Wipro says this time. Infosys always ahead of Wipro.. It releases the results a way befpre than Wipro….
Yes , I heard infoys is far better in processing and to publish results than other companies. .
I second that.. the company knows the percentage of appl going to get selected, if thats selected then it is good for them.
i too have a doubt why not 100 % get selected since its being a lottery, why there is a pattern consistent 50 % getting selected year after year.
Anybody got info on Non-AD/RP……sleepless nights bro…!!!
Dont think much…. We all know selection is over. We are curious to know the result. Lets keep that in check , not to allow over flow of thought process and get disturbed too much….
Spend time with your family and friends….. If your petition got picked up, you would hardly get time to spend with them….
Dont lose the “most precious present”, thinking more about “mysterious future”
Guys
One request – I had noticed in these blogs that there is a fight between ICC employees and AD candidates.
Please do not fight as both of them as respectable and both these guys need the H1B.
(1) AD guys struggled and done there masters. So they all should highly important to get the H1B’s.
(2) Secondly the ICC employees worked on the US projects are even important. As maximum of them are given the client letters and US companies likes them to work for there companies.
Please DO NOT FIGHT, all will get what they deserve. As we all know that this lottery is not a healthy way to judge any one capabilities. Whatever is the process of the USCIS we all have to obey 😀
Please be happy ! and most important thing please please respect each other’s. The life is too short. CHILL GUYS 😀
Best of Luck to all my friends including the AD & ICC (Indian Corporate Companies) candidates.
My application was filed under non-AD / PP…. Do I still have a chance?
Not sure about the center…. As my employer is in San Francisco, I am thinking that It will be California.
For Non AD/PP chances are very slim now, I am also on same boat.
Those Guys have middle name in their name they got maximum chance to select in lottery the survey said so hope for the best guys
Can you please share the survey details ? I think this was not a case as lottery is performed on the basis of unique number assigned to each application and not on the basis of names.
My name is split into 5 words. What do you say for this…:) Please don’t have such hope…
@h1buser : LOL 😀
Did u get this survey from facknews.com
To make it really random and real lottery.. it have to junk piece of code, which yields unexpected output..
i doubt, if there are no solid criteria , then there should be some logicless criteria to select…
in that case, it may happen by selecting whether your name has vowels “a,e,i,o,u” in it. If not reject, if yes approve…
just kidding.. 😛
H1B Algorithm
Every company is going to get the 30% of the H1B approved this year. As I read few of the blogs, the majority of the data shared by different companies till date received 30% for the RP. For the AD almost 50% or little less.
Experts any comments on it !
if anyone from wipro got please share with us.
I got email with receipt from my employer that my case was picked up but when I search the case online, I get a message that USCIS cannot provide info at this time. Is this due to some technical issue of the website updating the records or something to worry and not feel happy that its picked up? Anyone facing similar problem?
what type of application is yours ?? AD/PP/RP ?
i am not sure abt technical issues on websites, but try to find your case number/receipt number you can find the status here
@http_link: egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do
I tried the same earlier and even now. My case is Ad/pp/vsc. I have heard of this issue that records take time to get updated on the web system. And straight it goes to Approval. But cant be sure. Just wanted to know if someone else is facing this issue. My situation is like i dont know if i can celebrate or not.
i understand your issue.. lets hope for best.. keep positive thoughts.. it will make you feel better..
are you apply for pp or RP ?
Hey guys my employer has applied for my H1 in RP . How do I verify as many of employees says that the employer always says so but in actual he doesn’t apply.. M worried.. How can I check whether he applied or not? I have only got LCA receipt.
you cannot get to know that by any means .. unless your employer communicates with you.. bcos USCIS communicates with attorney/employer and to applicant by any means .
i know its not pleasing fact, but its TRUE fact.
You can ask for LCA number. They have to get LCA certified before applying H1b for you.
Any US advanced degree holders who filed multiple petitions through distinct employers?
Did any one of your applications get selected in lottery?
Yes, 1 got picked…:)
How many hopes… How many prayers…. How many tensions… Oh God……So pity of him…. He cannot answer all the 2,33000 prayers….
1000s of 2nd attempt
10,000s of 3rd attempt…
Laks of 1st attempt….. Just 3 more weeks, we all will know. I am just thinking of the people trying it for 3rd time.. such a long wait…. Hats off to your patience……
They claim it to be computer generated algorithm, we just need USCIS to increase the count of cap limit.
I heard from few employees who works on top service based companies(like congnizan,infsys,wpro) in india that RP results , would be communicated with their employees around april 25th ..
i am from wpro.. officially there are no such communication on this.
does the above news are valid from other companies??
I work for IBM India, Regular processing. I have mails from my company, asking to wait till Mid May to get some update.
Thanks bro/sis for your update.. 🙂
Looks true….. Wipro GIMS guy said me today morning that we can expect some results for RP by this Friday…….
Did they really told to you…can we expect by this friday..it has been a long wait..
@Gilly: please reply for ram’s question if you have answers
@Ram: Your question ‘Did they really tell you?’ makes me feel that I lied…. But It’s OK. We are all desperate to see the positive result ASAP…
Yes, person known to my colleague told me that we could expect some by this week. We might get… Or we might not be in that set of results and yet to come.. many possibilities are there…..
Let’s see…. This is my 4th time.. so even I am trying from all sources to get updates… I will keep you guys posted…..
Yes… But thats the MAX date… If GIMS has the results, they would not wait to publish it to employees. GIMS normally waits a week and sends bunch of results every end or start of the week and continued untill the results of all the applications are known.
So, this friday could be a memorable one for few of us to US..
Keep fingers crossed..
Thanks for update.. !!
Still we are also waiting for RP

I got email with receipt from my employer that my case was picked up but when I search the case online, I get a message that USCIS cannot provide info at this time.
