On March 30, 2021, USCIS announced that enough electronic registrations had been received during the initial H1B registration period to reach the FY2022 H-1B limit for both regular H-1B petitions and large ones. petitions. USCIS has notified all relevant petitions that they will be able to submit limited H1B petitions on behalf of the named beneficiary of each petition.
