The State Department will allow a limited number of H-1B holders to renew their visas in the United States under a pilot program, the details of which were unveiled Wednesday.
Key Points:
BAL Analysis: The pilot program is an important step toward bringing back domestic visa renewal, which has not been widely available in the U.S. since 2004. The pilot will be open only to a limited number of H-1B visa holders, but it could be expanded to other individuals and visa categories later in 2024. BAL will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
This alert has been provided by the BAL U.S. Practice Group.
