FY2013 H1B CAP – MVP EARLY BIRD SPECIAL

by Kellie N. Lego

MVP Law Group is now accepting H1B cap-subject cases for Fiscal Year 2013 (FY2013). Many foreign nationals and their employers have asked when they should start working on H1B FY2013 cap cases. The cap filings may be filed as of April 1, 2012. It is vital to file on the first day. For FY2012, the cap was not reached immediately; however, in years past, the filings have far outweighed the available H1B cap numbers. Since it is difficult to predict FY2013’s outcome, our recommendation is to file as soon as possible to ensure that your case is accepted.

In order to have a case ready to be filed with the USCIS on April 1st, it is necessary to prepare in advance. To facilitate this, as in past years, our firm begins accepting and preparing these cases months in advance. If there is an employer / employee match, it is best to start early to avoid the last minute rush.

Please contact our office or visit our website to find out more about our current H1B EARLY BIRD SPECIAL running until MARCH 7th, 2012.
