According to a newstudy by the National Foundation for American Policy, H-1B denialrates for cap-subject petitions has risen “from 6% in FY 2015 to 24% throughthe third quarter of FY 2019”. Perhapsmore amazing, 12% of extension/amendment H-1Bs are also being denied.
This NFAP study updates prior NFAPH-1B studies from April2019 and August2019. All of the NFAP data iscollected from the USCIS Employer Data hub.
These denials have a grave impact onUS healthcare, especially in rural areas who are increasingly relying onforeign-trained labor to augment incredible staffing shortage. Among the most popular occupations for H-1Bsare: Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapists, and Medical Technologists.
