The H-1B lottery has now ended, as USCIS received sufficient petitions to reach the FY 2023 cap in the first round. For those that are selected, we present recommendations to maximize your options for a positive outcome and present the outcomes of a group of petitions that have been adjudicated including straight approval, RFEs, the basis of the RFEs, our success rate (100% so far), and more. Understanding what those H-1B petitions that have been selected may face in the coming months or year is key to preparing for success.
