Report Shows Increasing H-1B and L-1 Denials

Teaser: 

A new study from USCIS indicates that USCIS has significantly increased the rate of H-1B and L-1 denials between 2008 and 2011. The rate of Requests for Evidence (RFEs) likewise increased.
 

In FY 2011 63 percent of all L-1B petitions were issued a Request for Evidence (RFE) and 27% were issued a denial up from 7% in 2007. H-1B petition denials are up only slightly from 11 percent in 2007 to 17 percent in FY 2011. O-1A petition denials increased from 4 percent in FY 2000 to 8 percent in FY 2011.
