<DIV><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=messageBody data-ft='{"type":3}'>If you are
seeking H-1B status, this note may be important to you. As you may
know, many people who seek such status must deal with the "cap," that is, a
limit (有限，或者配额）on the number of H-1B statuses that can be granted during a
particular fiscal year. <BR><BR>Through 9/9/2011, cap count is
<BR><SPAN class=text_exposed_show>- regular: 32,200 petitions received (out of
65,000* maximum, or 49.5% full)<BR>- master's exemption: 16,700 petitions
received (out of 20,000 maximum, or 83.5% full)</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV>

class=text_exposed_show>These figures apply to fiscal year 2012, that is, the
time period from October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2012. However, keep in
mind that 6,800 positions of the "regular" group are reserved for people from
Chile and Singapore.</SPAN></DIV></SPAN></FONT>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>If you are seeking H-1B and you have a master's degree,
you are elibile to receive status from either the "master's group" or the
"regular group." If you have a bachelor's degree, you may get status only
from the regular group.</FONT></DIV>
