| * The basis for classification is “new employment” and numerical limitation information is “Cap H-1B Bachelor's Degree” and “Cap H-1B U.S. Master's Degree or Higher”. Fiscal year of receipt and the fiscal year of the cap may differ, resulting in year-to-year deviations shown. These deviations are smoothed out by the average estimates. | ||
