USCIS, the immigration service that processes work visa applications, will begin accepting H-1B petitions on April 1. This will be for employment to begin on October 1. As in past years, it is expected that all 65,000 H1B visa numbers will be taken in the first day or two.
The H1B is not a green card. It is a temporary work visa, typically valid for three years. The H-1B allows people to work in the U.S. if they are filling jobs that require at least a bachelor's degree or higher.
If you are considering the H-1B, now is the time to start getting things in order for filing on April 1. What is the H-1B, see http://www.cundyandmartin.com/practice-areas/immigration-law/h-1b.html .
