Date: December 18, 2019

Time: 12:00PM - 1:00PM (EST)

United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued proposed regulations to implement an H-1B cap registration requirement for the upcoming H-1B cap season (FY2021, for filings beginning in April 2020). Once implemented, the regulations will fundamentally change the H-1B cap preparation and filing process.

Companies that file H-1B petitions on behalf of employees and candidates should participate in this webinar to learn about the process, timing, and potential risks as the USCIS cap registration program is rolled out. The program represents a significant effort by USCIS to receive electronic H-1B cap registrations, and companies need to prepare well in advance of filing season to ensure that they are in a position to sponsor H-1B cap petitions next year.
