The jobs being filled must be a job for which a bachelors degree is necessary. Even though the annual cap is 65.000. the actual number of foreign workers being imported is much more because of numerous exemptions. In fiscal year 2012. for example. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services approved a total of 262.569 H1B petitionsway above the legal limit of 65.000 or I should say the supposed limit of 65.000. About 60 percent of HlB workers come to fill computerrelated occupations. Every year the list of the top 10 HlB employers is dominated by foreignbased companies offering information technology or IT consulting services to the clients.
