1. Why You Should Plan Now?

2. On April 1, 2017 USCIS will
begin accepting H-1B petitions
subject to the FY 2018 cap.
Once USCIS receives a sufficient number of
H1B petitions to reach the H-1B cap numbers,
it will NOT ACCEPT further H-1B petitions.

3. Top 5reasons why
you must start planning
for your H-1B Cap 2018 filing

4. Next H-1B Bus is 18 Months Away!

6. Credential Evaluation Setbacks
Early determination is essential in case evaluation

time there is to incorporate alternative strategies.

7. Labor Condition Application Delays
An H-1B petition that lacks a certified
LCA will be rejected or ultimately denied.
Since LCA’s are filed using an electronic system,
delays caused by system breakdowns are unavoidable.

“I am so grateful for VisaPro's help in getting an H1-B visa put into place for a
highly valuable new hire. I honestly don't know what I would have done if it
hadn't been for the help of [VisaPro] Case Manager. He was able to patiently
and clearly explain each stage of the process, was very responsive throughout,
and was really a pleasure to work with. If we ever go through this process
again, I know I will be calling VisaPro for help.”
