Some H-1B petitions are “wait-listed”

By HSB  On April 18, 2008;

H1B Visa 2009 Lottery is complete and USCIS will send receipt notice to H1B Petition that are approved. I have written about USCIS to approve more than 85,000 H1B Visas
and here’s the official reason behind why more number of visas were approved. But additional H1B Visa petitions approved are “wait-listed”.

USCIS has “wait-listed” some H-1B petitions, meaning they may possibly replace petitions chosen to receive an FY-2009 cap number, but that subsequently are denied, withdrawn, or otherwise found ineligible. USCIS will retain these petitions until a decision is made whether they will replace a previously selected petition. USCIS will send a letter to the wait list petitioners to inform them of their status.

USCIS expects that for each of these wait-listed petitions, it will either issue a receipt notice or return the petition with fees within six to eight weeks.
