U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has opened the 90-day filing period for petitioners whose registrations were selected in this year’s H-1B lottery.
Key Points:
Additional Information: Under an H-1B rule published in February, USCIS switched to a beneficiary-centric lottery this year, meaning each beneficiary could be selected only once, regardless of how many registrations were submitted on their behalf. While this change may lead to a higher selection rate, USCIS has not yet provided information on how many registrations were submitted or selected this year. Employers are encouraged to work with their BAL attorney to explore H-1B alternatives for job candidates whose registrations were not selected in the lottery.
This alert has been provided by the BAL U.S. Practice Group.
