The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has proposed a minimal registration fee for petitioners seeking to file H-1B Cap-Subject Petitions. DHS announced on Tuesday, September 3rd, a proposed rule change that would require petitioners seeking to file H-1B cap-subject petitions to pay a $10 registration fee for each electronic registration they submit to USCIS.
Under the new electronic registration requirement, sponsoring employers seeking to file H-1B cap applications have first electronically register with the USCIS during a designated registration period. Only those pre-registries will be eligible to file an H-1B cap-subject application.
For complete details, please review the USCIS News Alert, “DHS Proposes Minimal Registration Fee for Petitioners Seeking to File H-1B Cap-Subject Petitions” for more details.
