| |  INS Retracts Information on H1B Usage by Top 20 Employers Posted Jan 17, 2000 In another statement issued by the INS, they apologized for the error in the information provided regarding the list of the top 20 H1B employers in the U.S. Apparently the INS has been providing information, upon request, since June 1999 of companies using the maximum number of H1Bs each fiscal year. Since the information is not accurate, INS confirmed that it should be disregarded and they hope to resolve data reporting issues in the H-1B program with respect to future requests for such data. The Law Office of Sheela Murthy believes that this error of the INS (in the list of the top 20 H1B employers using the H1B Program) may be connected with the glitch in computing the H1B usage. Apparently, some of these companies complained that the INS has grossly exaggerated the number of new H1B Petitions filed and approved by such companies and had requested that INS issue an apology until their calculations were verified.© The Law Office of Sheela Murthy, P.C.  | |
