In March 2023, the USCIS conducted an initial random selection of registrations for the FY 2024 H-1B cap. Those chosen were eligible to file cap-subject petitions from April 1 to June 30, 2023.
The USCIS has now determined that additional registrations are needed to reach the FY 2024 numerical allocations. As such, a second lottery will be conducted (round of random selections) from previously submitted electronic registrations.
Once the second selection is complete, the USCIS will notify Petitioners/Representatives about the newly selected cases, and their myUSCIS accounts will be updated with selection notices detailing when and where to file. It is important that Petitioners/Representatives check for updates on their respective accounts.
