On November 23, 2011, USCIS reported that the prior day they had reached the annual 65,000 cap on H-1B petitions.  The announcement is HERE.  This is siginificantly earlier than the date the cap was reached in FY 2011.  If this reflects an uptick in H-1B hiring employers are well advised to plan their FY 2013 H-1B recruitment with an eye towards the earliest possible filing date which is March 1, 2012 for an October 1, 2012 start.
