When will the H1B visa 2017 season start ? Date ?
Short answer April 1st 2016. Typically, USCIS will start to accept petitions for the next fiscal year starting from April 1st of the previous fiscal year. USCIS fiscal year is from October 1st to September 30th. So, for H1B quota of fiscal year 2017, which starts from October 1st, 2017, USCIS would typically accept applications from April 1st, 2016. The H1B Visa 2016 season started on April 1st of 2015. Also, in the H1B Rejected Notices of 2016, USCIS mentioned that, the non-selected candidates can file H1B petitions for FY 2017 on or after April 1st, 2016.
USCIS announced on March 16th, 2016 that they will accept FY 2017 petitions from April 1st, 2016. Read Summary of USCIS press release FY 2017 .
Also, we have written an article summarizing on What to expect in H1B FY 2017 Season
What is H1B 2017 Cap ? What are the H1B 2017 Quota numbers ? Regular vs Masters ?
If you new to H1B, I suggest you read All about H1B Visa Cap- Regular vs Masters. In simple terms H1B cap is a congressional mandated maximum number of petitions that USCIS can accept in a year. As of now, below are the H1B cap number for fiscal year 2017. The below numbers are confirmed in press release by USCIS on Mar 16, 2016.
- Regular H1B Quota : 65,000
- H1B Master’s Degree Quota ( only US Master 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.
There have been many discussions around change in H1B cap numbers by Obama administration since 2013. The planned proposal was to increase the regular quota cap to 110,000 and Masters quota to 25,000. No changes for FY 2017, the above numbers of 65,000 and 20,000 are officially confirmed by USCIS in their press release.
What is H1B Visa 2017 Prediction? Will there be Lottery again for FY 2017
Update : USCIS Updated on April 12th, 2016 that they have received over 236,000 petitions for FY 2017 quota and the lottery was completed on April 9th.
Looking at the past trend of H1B season in the past three years, we could very likely have lottery for FY 2017. Last year for FY 2016 quota, there were 233,000 applications. We have done a detail analysis with the H4 Visa EAD rule in place considering the economy, students graduating, OPT news, etc. You should read article H1B Visa 2017 Lottery Prediction News, results, Date .
If H1B lottery, will there be any preference in lottery for Large companies ? Premium Processing
Well, no preference for anyone, all are treated equally, including premium processing. There are many such misconceptions about lottery process, we have compiled a list of such myths and criteria, you should read Myths of H1B Lottery, Criteria
When to plan for H1B visa 2017 Application ? How soon ? What should be the strategy ?
It is never too late to start planning for your H1B 2017 season. If you plan to work in US on H1B visa in the next coming fiscal year, below are some suggestions based on your situation.
- F1 Student in USA : If you are studying on F1 visa and about to graduate in next one year, you should seriously look at finding an internship or co-op at companies that can sponsor your H1B visa. You can search for H1B Sponsors in a particular area using our H1B Sponsors Search Tool and try to get an internship to work there on CPT or OPT after you graduate. This is a strategic move and will require sometime, so plan well.
- Professional from outside USA : If you are a working professional outside US, planning to work in US on H1B, your best bet is to find Multinational companies that have major US presence and secure a job there, so that you can position internally for applying to H1B visa, when the season starts. This is a very strategic decision, you need to carefully assess your options, speak to the company if such options exist and then only choose it.
- Other H4, L1 Visas : If you are on these visas, your best bet is to find companies just like I mentioned for F1 students that sponsor H1B visas and start interviewing and keeping the conversation going so that you can ask them to file H1B when the season starts.
We have put together a Step by Step Plan on How to apply for H1B 2017 Quota
How do I find a H1B Visa Sponsor – The most asked million dollar question ?
If you are student in the US, it is very straight forward, you find the list of H1B Sponsoring companies using the tool in an area as I mentioned above and get an internship in one of them so that they can sponsor your H1B visa. Unlike, if you are coming from outside US, it can be tricky. If you work for an Multinational company ( MNC), then they will have some internal process to pick the candidates and then process H1B visa for them…The other option that has been used and abused is the consulting companies route…Many a times, the H1B aspirants approach a body shop IT consulting company to file H1B for them and they apply for the same. It gets nasty with the body shop consulting companies. The comments on this H1B Companies Reviews article are quite eye opening. I advise, you beware of the consulting companies and avoid fraud. Also, WE as RedBus2US do NOT provide any guidance or assistance or sponsor anything. If someone claims that, it is pure fraud and they are trying to trick you, we are not responsible for that. Please be careful. Anyways, for various other options , You may read article How to find H1B 2017 Sponsors
What is the H1B visa 2017 filing fee ? Is it same or any changes ?
It changed slightly this year with the Omnibus Bill passed in December 2015, that will increase the H1B filing fee by $4000 for FY 2017, until 2025 for certain companies that have over 50 employees and have more than 50% of their employees as H1B or L1 visa holders in USA. Check USCIS Guidelines on H1B Fee increase. Depending on the size of the company, the H1B filing fee can vary anywhere from $1,600 USD to $7,400 USD + Attorney Fee. There are various fees components that make up this number range, for more details Read Summary of H1B Filing Fee 2017 – Who pays for What ? . Below is a high level summary. Also, one key change is that, there was $2000 USD additional filing fee as per Public Law 111-230, this law expired on Sep 30, 2015 and that is not included anymore.
| H1B Fee Component | Fee in USD |
| Base filing fee | $325 |
| AICWA Fee | $750 or $1,500 |
| Fraud prevent & detection fee | $500 |
| Fee based on Public Law 114-113 ( if applicable) | $4000 |
| Premium processing fee (Optional) | $1,225 |
| Immigration Attorney Fee | Varies from $500 to $3000 |
What about Comprehensive Immigration Reform(CIR) and Obama Executive Actions for H1B 2017 Quota Increase ?
There has been many articles and discussions since 2013 around immigration reform by President Obama and changes around and some like below have been discussed in the last couple of years, nothing moved significantly.
- 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 ( Part of this came up as the fee increase in Omnibus Bill )
- Additional H1B rules to avoid H1B Visa fraud by employers
- Mandatory LCA posting for 30 days before it is certified.
The current status on all of the above are basically “No updates”, there are no set deadlines for any of them and none of these are happening for FY 2017. You may read Summary of CIR Changes to H1B . Officially as per press release on March 16, 2016, the H1B cap is confirmed to be 65,000 for regular and 20,000 for masters…hence, no changes.
What is LCA for H1B Visa ? Processing times ?
LCA is a form that has to be filed with US Dept of Labor and get it certified before filing H1B petition with USCIS. It has to be sent along with H1B Package to USCIS. It has all the relevant information about the job position like wage, location, title, etc. It takes about 7 working days for processing of the LCA by US Dept of Labor (DOL). You can read complete details at Why is LCA Needed for H1B – Processing Time, Salary
USCIS Updated in their original press release on March 16, 2016 that the premium processing will begin no later than May 16, 2016. But, on April 22nd, they updated that the premium processing for FY 2017 will begin on May 12th, 2016. What it means is that the official 15 calendar day SLA for premium processing petitions will be starting from 12th. USCIS may process the petitions early as well, but officially their clock starts on that day.

Non-AD/PP/3rd time application !! My attorney told me last week that there is still hope until I receive rejection paper. What do you think guys ? Feeling so unlucky !
You should move on now. Apply next year if you get a chance. But for this year at this time I think even regular processing also chances are slim
When will Regular Processing will start receiving approvals, also are RFE’s sent later than approvals.
To the unlucky ones, what do you guys think of H1b 2018? Are you going to reapply? Go to a different country? You think the regulations of H1B will change?

Saurabh cannot tell if there is hope for CTS employees. Even CTS cannot. Waiting to hear from your Immigration department is the only thing you can do.
Lol…
Can’t believe these guys…
There should be limit to think nonsense & ask nonsense questions here… Have little shame, you guys are so called “Engineers”.
Now you guys wants Saurabh to answer your question, whether CTS/TCS/Infy/Wipro/HCL/IBM/TechM/… gonna send further receipt or not???

Any one got H1B update from Capgemini_FS BU.
Please reply .
Not yet . Waiting
Not Yet, no update from CG
not yet waiting…looks no update to nyone in capgemini
But WHY!??.. Is this the process?? I heard, last time Capgemini send communications around may 1st week.. did the process change this year?.
Also, when I asked mobility team, they said, I need to wait till may end.. for what joy??
Last time CG announced the lottery results on 15th June. The results were announced for everyone on the same day. The results were not announced in batches.
CapGemini is trying to mess with all its employees, CG is hiring people from other companies in India like Infosys etc. and filing for their H1B’s and if selected directly posting them with CG USA, If not selected/approved in Visa then they are not hired.
After all this is really feel that People Never mattered and Results are the only thing that matters.
Any update on fragomen portal today?
still have not got any update in HCL, if anyone plz share ????
Still waiting..
HCL,
Any Update for any One in HCL
Hi , could some one give the good consultancy/employers list, I want to process next year. I think I am not going to get any more response this year.
H1b results stopped for attration this quarter?how come vishal take such decision??
They will have to disclose it today or tomorrow. Attrition will happen irrespective of date of result declaration. So why now disclose now.
Haven’t u seen the news yet 😉
economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/ites/vishal-sikka-kicks-in-big-salary-spikes-at-infosys/articleshow/52287712.cms
He needs to justify his salary….If this means delaying hike letters, H1 receipts, etc to reduce attrition so be it….
Infy Guys I really don’t know why such frustration when such delays.. I agree Infy is delaying but,
We are ready to take things with smile when Vishal achieves a greater milestone for the company but the same was not now when we are delayed with something which would cause the company’s growth
So, being an ethical guy, we should learn to support our company when it goes up and down
I would like to dedicate this saying which I like the most
“Delays are not denials but comes with greater compensation”
Guys any updates for TCSers
After many reminder mails, got an update from Hyderabad FDFU that they did not get any update about me. Very frustrating… 🙁
[post by an imposter]
I don’t Know what will you achieve by posting like admin. For Your info, all of us know that you are fake. People here are really frustrated about the results and no one is interested on your posts. Please go and play some video games kidduu…
Any one from received any update.
Any one got receipt number from IBM Kolkata?
Any updates from TCS Pune?
Garunteed to get H1b.. vist Visa Baba in Bombay.. he do the havan and the puja and garuntee you will get H1b in first attempt
Guys, just a thought. I am sure a lot of us sought help from the Gods by visiting lot of temples, church, mosques. I did too. I visited Chilkur Balaji twice, Puri once, Shirdi once, and a lot of temples, big and small. And there is no news on my application until now. Yes, I intend to apply again next year if I dont get through this time, but I feel seeking divine intervention does not work. If its in your fate to get through, you will get it. Hence this whole H1 lottery saga, had only reinforced my belief that there is no such thing as God. Its just you and your luck. For next year I am not going to waste my time and effort on visiting any more such places.
Nice to hear that, you are gonna stop behaving & thinking as a brainless…
Finally u developed some kind of sensible thinking through your experience …
Keep going, I wish you all good luck for your future! Keep up the hard work n self belief…!
Belief in oneself is the ultimate resort mate. GOD is always there with you. No need of giving him Goose. He knows you inside out. You will make it to US. Dont worry. All the best.
Have belief in god , never ever loose it..
You will definitely make it man
Don’t loose hope as well
Keep working , Keep rocking
God will give you the visa when its the right time for you. You cannot make it out now, but you will surely be able to connect the dots later when you look back. If our kids cry for an expensive toy which is not for their age, we dont give them rightaway but wait for the right time so that they are able to use it efficiently. This does not mean we do not love them.
So have faith and patience. God knows what is better for you, more than you know.
I am atheist, I never ever visited temples in my life. I got through in my first attempt. It is all luck.
God’s plan is the best than any other plan. Today you may not know the answer yet but in His perfect time, you will understand. Keep the Faith!
I tend to agree. This is my third time in lottery and no luck as the previous two attempts. I’m an atheist too
@MeanToBe – I totally agree with you.
@Whatever – I haven’t got my receipt yet but still I have some hope.I also visited lot temples and prayed to get the visa this year. From my heart, I want the H1B badly but even if I don’t get it this year, I am 10000% sure that GOD has better plans for me or may be he wants me to wait a bit more. don’t loose your hope.
Everyone who doesn’t get through the lottery this year, I know its hard but its not the end of the road. There are lots of other opportunities out there, just find it. Believe in god, believe in yourself, work hard and do good things, then luck will automatically come to us.
Don’t think much and belive in GOD,Seriously you will get it.God is great and he will definitely listen to your prayers.
There you go…
I cant believe you hopeless, brainless ppls who wants to just believe in something nonexistence than own ability… You guys want every happiness and comfort of life without putting real efforts to achieve it…
Stop jerking off and getting stoned…
Go get a life…
I can understand your frustration, so i never mind…
But still i will say belive in god .
All the best .
frustration… Seriously…?
For your kind information mine is PP and already approved on 13th May And i never visited any foolish money making temples to get it through…
By the way u can keep going those smart business peoples seating in temple need ur help to live royal life…
@Saikrupa: Give a deaf ear to nonsense from people like #Go D. They will one day surely understand.
God’s plan is the best than any other plan. Today you may not know the answer yet but in His perfect time, you will understand. Keep the Faith!
I think the way organisation working these days are not so much appreciable. Every where lag in performing work. Either in GICS and also releasing hike letters and so on. Decision making is so important quality of any CEO.
Ooh poor guys, get back to reality…
Its all done deliberately… Nothing to do with any team performance. They have been instructed to do so…
I sincerely hope you do your assigned tasks without any lag at all! Because to be honest, since H1B is an important thing to you, you are not thinking twice before talking about the qualities of a CEO! For all the other parties involved, updating your H1B receipt or any status is just another task for them. Nothing important, nothing time sensitive. So peace out!
frm Pune DC ..GICS is up but no status change …. any updates or other DC
No reply either from chennai DC!! @Shweta infy
No reply from Bangalore DC as well…Sreekanth@Infy 🙁
Any one one who is waiting for h1b result from collabera?
Also I request other people who got an update from collabera to post their comment.
No ,I havent got any update .Whether you called them?
IBMers , anyone received receipt today?

@CTS ppl,
Please update here if anyone received receipt notification.
Not yet. Is there still hope for Cognizant ppl yet?
CTS is done updating as per GIT. There are now no chance of getting mail unless there is some serious miscommunication by GIT.
Dear CTS Folks,
Can you guys be patient for few days. I could see you all over the place. Remember you are bringing disgrace to your employer and fellow Indian folks who are waiting for lottery results. I can understand your agony but don’t forget this a public forum and maintain some decency. Everybody is clueless like you as they too don’t have any clue about USCIS results. Use your employer’s name judiciously and maintain dignity. All the best!
Infy any comments when will results out???any gi insider??
No updates. No one know the reason why these guys are withholding the results where as all other companies are already done with the process.
Some people say that it has something to do with the current attrition rate. Nobody knows for sure. So we have no option but to wait.
Exactly.
No one knows anything for sure.
Zero distance and zero bench is what Infy expects from employee.
But reality is for employees – there is delay in everything whether its Visa status, hike, Claims, AHD or annything.
My manager informed me that they are planning to release the updates only by month-end.
