My wife and me are currently in F1 Visa with our OPT started a month ago. I am planning to talk with my employer for a sponsorship of H1 Visa. If they agree, what is the last the last date to apply for H1 B Visa? Is it Oct 2009? Is there a possibility of loosing the first 20,000 slot for students if we file in the last dates?

According to a USCIS update, as of June 26, 2009, they have received about 44,800 H-1B petitions against the general quota of 65,000 and about 20,000 against the U.S. advanced degree quota, and will continue to accept both cap-subject petitions and advanced degree petitions until the quota limits are reached. It is difficult to predict how long it would take to reach that stage.
