What happens if my H-1B petition is received at the correct USCIS Service Center during the H-1B Cap filing window?

A3 – All properly filed H-1B petitions subject to the H-1B Cap received during the filing window will be entered into a random lottery if the number of petitions filed exceeds the Cap. The Cap on H-1B numbers for those holding U.S. Master’s Degrees is 20,000, and the Cap for all others is 58,200 (65,000, minus 1,400 set aside for H-1B1 petitions for nationals of Chile, and minus 5,400 set aside for H-1B1 petitions for nationals of Singapore). USCIS has announced that it will calculate the number of U.S. Master’s numbers received first, applying the first numbers to those petitions, then move to the general Cap.
