When will I know that I have been selected for a U.S. work visa?

First of all, the U.S. work visa starts collecting work visa materials in early April and early October, and then stops collecting when the application quota is full. After the collection stopped, the lottery almost started.

This year’s situation is: the H1B work visa started collecting materials on April 3, the application quota was full on April 7, and the lottery results began on April 11. The specific time still depends on the time when the lottery results are released. However, the results should be available between the end of April and June (it may take longer, as there are tens of thousands of places available and applicants are waiting for the results).

So how do you know that you have been selected: When you first apply, the applicant is required to submit an application fee. If you are selected, the Immigration Bureau will withdraw the submitted application fee and then issue an acceptance receipt. However, The application fee for materials that are selected but have not been reviewed will not be refunded. Applicants still need to wait for the Immigration Bureau to issue documents to confirm whether they have been selected. If you are not selected, the USCIS will refund the application fee.
