The USCIS announced on April 10, 2007, that, as of April 3rd, they had
received 12,989 cases toward the fiscal year (FY) 2008 advanced-degree H1B
cap. This means that all advanced-degree filings made on April 2nd and 3rd
will have a cap number available. The USCIS is still sorting and counting
cases received after April 3rd;
thus there is no information as to the total count to date.

The premium processing procedure is working for the advanced degree cases,
as we at the Murthy Law Firm received our first FY2008 advanced-degree
approval on April 11, 2007. This Friday's (April 13, 2007) issue of the
MurthyBulletin will carry more information on how the USCIS is handling
premium processing for the regular cap cases.
