H-1B Visa Numbers

Since May 14, USCIS had counted 8,300 regular H-1Bs, or about 750/week and 3,500 U.S. Master’s numbers, or about 320/week. At current rates, that leaves about 50 weeks of regular numbers and 26 weeks of Master’s numbers. Assuming the Master’s move over to the regulars after their numbers are exhausted, at current rates, all numbers should run out about 40 weeks from now. In sum, there are plenty of H-1B visa numbers available.
