It is not easy to predict the h1b visa in the United States in 22. Getting H1B visa is the dream of many international students in the United States, but it is like crossing a wooden bridge with thousands of troops in practice, which requires the double blessing of luck and strength. In particular, the increasingly high application threshold makes it more and more difficult for international students to stay and work in the United States.
L. Francis Cissna, director of the U.S. Immigration Bureau, said that H-1B applicants who participated in this year's lottery can apply for speeding up the trial and start the new H-1B visa data center at the beginning of the H-1B visa application season in fiscal year 22, and remind applicants of the new visa application regulations. These new measures highlight the commitment of the Immigration Bureau to support President Trump's executive order "Buy American goods and hire Americans", which aims to protect American workers.
The trial season of H-1B visa in FY 22 begins. The Immigration Bureau will start accepting H-1B visa applications in FY 22 on April 1, 219, and will reject applications submitted before April 1. H-1B applicants must comply with all legal and regulatory requirements when preparing their applications, so as to avoid delays in the application process and possible supplementary requirements.
accelerated processing of H-1B visa application in FY22 In the H-1B visa application season in FY22, applicants can submit I-97 for accelerated processing. However, in order to give priority to the data entry of the H-1B visa application, the Immigration Bureau will not start the accelerated processing immediately, but will start on May 2th at the latest, and inform the public before the accelerated processing begins.
The Immigration Bureau also announced that the new H-1B employer data center will be published on the website of uscis.gov on April 1st. The data center is part of the US Immigration Service's continuing efforts to improve the transparency of the H-1B visa program, allowing the public to search for H-1B visa applicants based on fiscal year, NAICS industry code, company name, city, state or postal code. This will enable the public to calculate the approval and rejection rates and review which employers are using the H-1B plan.
in January this year, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced a final rule, which revised the relevant regulations on H-1B visa applications, including those that may be eligible for higher degree exemption.
holders of H1B visas can work in the United States for three years, which can be extended for another three years. After the expiration of six years, if the identity of visa holders has not changed, they must leave the United States.
