USCIS Delays Wage-Based H-1B Selection Process

United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that it is delaying the H-1B policy of the previous Trump Administration on the allocation of the popular foreign work visas by continuing with the lottery system until December 31, 2021, to give the immigration agency more time to develop, test and implement the modifications to the registration system.

The delay has been announced days after the Department of Labor (DOL) postponed the implementation of the final wages rule until May 14, 2021. The Department said that the proposed delay will “allow agency officials the opportunity to review any questions of fact, law, or policy, the rule may raise.”

Please contact us directly if you need help sponsoring workers for H-1B visas for the fiscal year 2022.
