A final regulation to “modernize” the H-1B visa program is under review at the White House Office of Management and Budget.
Key Points:
BAL Analysis: USCIS published a 227-page proposed H-1B modernization rule in October. The proposal drew more than 1,300 comments in a comment period that ended Dec. 22. Business and immigration coalitions have been generally supportive of USCIS’ proposal to shift to a beneficiary-centric lottery, but reactions have been more mixed on some of the proposal’s other measures. BAL will continue monitoring the proposal through the regulatory process and will provide updates as information becomes available.
