枫下茶话 / 美国话题 / 请教关于H1签证申请时间。听说每年都是4月份雇主申请H1签证，不知道是不是真的？申请后，听说美国劳工部至少要审查6个月，不知道是不是真的？如果都是真的，那么我现在如果想办H1签证的话，最快得明年10分才能得到签证，对不对？那位前辈解释给解释一下下，先谢了

It is true, for Canadian citizen, one can apply for TN and work before switching to H1-B.

H1b 是四月份由雇主帮你递申请，如果是加急的抽签后两三个星期你就知道结果了。如果普通申请基本上要一两个月拿到签证。但是这个签证到十月份才有效。所以在这以前，你需要用其他有效签证工作，比如TN.

H1B has a quota cap (65,000 this year) and it becomes effective on Oct 01 each year (the beginning of fiscal year). USCIS starts to accept petitions for the next fiscal year on Apr 01.Since much more petitions than the quota, the cap is usually met right after Apr 01. Once the cap is met, no petition is accepted. This is why people say you can only apply in April. If the cap is never met, you can apply any time.
