2019 - Are you prepared for the stringent H-1B Visa approval process in 2019-2020

OVERVIEW
The H-1B program allows companies in the United States to temporarily employ foreign workers in occupations that require the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge and a bachelor’s degree or higher in the specific specialty, or its equivalent. H-1B specialty occupations may include fields such as science, engineering and information technology, and fields such as teaching and accounting.
DHS has announced a final rule amending regulations governing cap-subject H-1B petitions, including those that may be eligible for the advanced degree exemption. The final rule reverses the order by which USCIS selects H-1B petitions under the H-1B regular cap and the advanced degree exemption, and it introduces an electronic registration requirement for petitioners seeking to file cap-subject H-1B petitions.
Employers are attempting to challenge these strict regulations in court and also mitigate the restrictions as best they can.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
The H-1B visa approval in 2019 has become more stringent than ever before. The USCIS after reviewing the H-1B visa program has come up with a number of policies and regulatory changes to carry out the current administrations’ “Buy American, Hire American” initiative, including a conscientious review of employment-based visa programs.
The work permit H-4 visa for spouses of H-1B visa holders, and the lottery system that selects beneficiaries of the program every year will be impacted based on such a policy initiative. Many employers are attempting to mitigate these regulations and still be able to hire specialty occupations. Learn how the increase of H-1B rejections is impacting companies who count on H-1B employees to operate their businesses.
