H-1B Lottery Results 2026: FY2027 Selections Now Releasing via myUSCIS

H-1B lottery results for Fiscal Year 2027 have started to roll out, according to attorneys at Manifest Law. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is in the process of notifying selected registrants, with a deadline of March 31, 2026 for all notifications to be sent. Employers sponsoring H-1B workers will receive lottery selection results directly through their myUSCIS online accounts. This is the standard channel USCIS uses for official case communications and registration outcomes. For EB-3 applicants, the H-1B lottery outcome is relevant as many workers on H-1B visas are also pursuing or considering employment-based green card pathways. Those not selected in the H-1B lottery may look more seriously at EB-3 as an alternative long-term immigration route. Applicants and employers are advised to monitor their myUSCIS accounts closely through March 31, 2026. Those selected will need to file a full H-1B petition, while those not selected may need to explore alternative visa categories or timing strategies for future lottery cycles.
