The USCIS has announced the successful completion of a registration process which will be implemented for the FY 2021 H-1B Cap petitions.
Petitioners or their authorized representatives will be required to electronically register all prospective beneficiaries through the new system. Each registration will cost a $10.00 fee and the initial registration period will last from March 01, 2020 through March 20, 2020. If more than the quota requirement is met, then a lottery will be conducted to randomly select beneficiaries for whom petitions may be filed. Only those selected in the lottery will be eligible to file H-1B cap subject petitions.
Further details are expected in the coming weeks when the formal implementation announcement is released thought the Federal Register.
