USCIS Formally Proposes H-1B Registration Process

USCIS published a proposed rule that would require petitioners seeking to file H-1B cap-subject petitions to pay a $10 fee for each electronic registration they submit to USCIS for the H-1B cap selection process. Comments were due October 4, 2019. USCIS has not yet announced whether it intends to implement the H-1B registration process for the upcoming FY2021 H-1B cap filing season, which begins on April 1, 2020, but it is expected.
