Increase H1B Visas There is now a great need in the U.S. for a dramatic increase in H-1B visa availability in order to meet the demand of U.S. businesses for skilled workers. Companies across the?United States?are now beginning to assess their H-1B visa needs for the FY 2015 (10/1/14 - 9/30/15) filing season and are expecting even greater competition for the limited number of available H-1B cap slots. Foreign born skilled workers actually increase our jobs availability On the contrary, studies have shown that foreign-born skilled workers help the economy and actually create jobs for U.S. citizens.
