H1B advanced degree quota!!! URGENT

Hi all,

I just heard from a recruiter that there are 900 H1B visas left under
advanced degree quota, which hasn't been used. Can anyone confirm
this? I don't know his source. And he said that he heard it from
someone else.

Don't know to believe him or not.

Does anyone know how long will take for 22 visas to get used? I
presume it's probably matter of days if not hours?
