USCIS has reported that as of June 11, 2010 it has issued receipts for 22,000 H-1B cap-subject petitions, leaving 43,000 available H-1Bs in the general or “bachelor’s cap” allotment. The prior update was 3 weeks ago at which time approximately 19,000 receipts had been issued. Therefore, it appears about 1000 H-1Bs are being filed each week.

USCIS has issued 9,400 H-1B receipts for those with advanced degrees, leaving 10,600 H1Bs available in the “master’s cap” allotment. In the event that the master’s cap allotment is used up before the general cap allotment, those with advanced degrees will then be counted as part of the general cap allotment.
