As of November 13, 2009, approximately 55,600 H-1B cap-subject petitions had been filed. The federally mandated cap for Fiscal Year 2010 is 65,000. When taking into account that 6,800 H-1B numbers are reserved for nationals of Chile and Singapore, that means only 2600 H-1Bs are left. We could easily see the H-1B cap run out in December or early January.
