A proposed rule to “modernize” H-1B requirements and oversight and provide additional flexibility in the F-1 student visa program is under review at the White House Office of Management and Budget.
Key Points:
BAL Analysis: The proposal could have broad consequences for the H-1B and F-1 visa programs; however, the text of the rule has not yet been published. In June, DHS indicated it was targeting December 2023 for publication, but it is possible the proposal will be published before then. The proposal will go through a 30- to 60-day notice-and-comment period before it is updated and published as a final rule, and it will likely have a delayed effective date. BAL will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
This alert has been provided by the BAL U.S. Practice Group.
