What does the data mean for H-1B workers?
- H-1B approvals were 399,395 in FY2024; the preliminary FY2025 figure is ~358,000 — about 10% lower. Projected
- India nationals received ~71% of all approvals, so cap and fee changes land hardest on them. Reported
- Denials edged up from ~25,500 (FY2024) toward ~30,000 (FY2025 preliminary). Projected
- Two recent changes affect applicants: USCIS moved to beneficiary-centric registration (FY2025 cap) and raised filing fees (April 2024). Reported
