H-1B ADJUDICATION PAUSE TO CONTINUE
On Friday, April 21, 2000, the INS told the American Immigration Lawyers Association that the agency’s self-imposed pause in processing H-1B petitions that would apply to the cap will continue for “a couple more working days.”  A large part of the reason for the pause is to allow the Service Centers to become current on the processing of non-cap cases, which have severely backlogged as the INS has dealt with the imposition of the cap.  
According to information released by the INS, processing of non-cap cases varies widely among the Service Centers.  For example, at the California Service Center, they were recently working on non-cap cases filed on November 23, 1999.  Within one week of the dedication of additional resources to non-cap cases, the CSC was working on cases filed in the middle of December.  It is hoped that within the next week, cases filed in early 2000 will be being adjudicated.
