There were only about sixty-five thousand temporary visas available for highly skilled foreigners for 2009. There are not enough H-1B visas available. Last year, when applications were turned in, it exceeded the limit on the first day. Since there were so many applicants, the subscription for visas were starting to be only once a year.
The USA faces a shortage of highly skilled workers because of the H-1B problem. The reason there were so many jobs available for foreigners with visas/working papers is because too few Americans were going into scientific and technical fields.
According to the National Foundation for American Policy, the average high-tech company has four hundred seventy opening it can not fill. Microsoft needs more than four thousand. Looking at this research, it is hard to not see and try to solve a problem.
President Bush along with three major presidential contenders, have expressed their desire of increasing the amount of H-1B’s to give to applicants. The only problem is, the people that were against it such as the labor and anti-immigration groups in Washington.

The H2B visa category is one of the only visa categories that authorizes unskilled laborers to work in the U.S. For this reason, this category is highly in-demand for individuals who may not be eligible to apply for any other U.S. visa. The H2B visa category is an invaluable resource which many U.S. employers rely on to fill temporary or seasonal needs that would be impossible to fill with U.S. workers
