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.
