USCIS announced today that the H-1B Cap has been met for year 2010. This is the end of an unusually long period of time USCIS accepted H-1B nonimmigrant visa petitions. This does not effect extensions, amendments, or change of employers for current H-1B visa holders.

Employers may resume filing H-1B petitions on April 1, 2010 for year 2011 (employment beginning on or after October 1, 2010).

For more information on the H-1B cap, please see our previous blog posts.
