The H-1B race is on!
Today, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) began accepting H-1B petitions for fiscal year 2008. Through the H-1B visa program, technology companies can seek permission from the U.S. government to hire temporary foreign employees. It is expected that 65,000 H-1B visas will be issued this year.
If you don’t see a question or two about the H-1B visa (or some other visa program) on your upcoming PHR or SPHR exam, I’ll be very surprised.
If you’d like to go right to the source for more information, here’s a link to the USCIS website.
