U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced today that it has completed data entry for H-1B cap petitions for fiscal year 2018 that were chosen in the lottery and will begin returning petitions that were not selected.
Key points:
BAL Analysis: Employers and individuals are reminded that premium processing for all H-1B petitions remains suspended, which may delay receipts. They should expect returns of unselected petitions to continue for the next few months. The agency will notify petitioners whose cases are transferred from the Vermont Service Center to the California Service Center, as all future correspondence will go to the location handling the case.
