You must ensure that you have properly filed your H-1B Cap-subject application for ensuring maximum chances of approval. US Citizenship and Immigration Services - USCIS will begin accepting the cap-subject applications from 1 April 2019.

 

The H-1B Program permits firms in the US to provisionally employ overseas workers. This is in occupations that need the practical and theoretical application of a body of knowledge that is highly specialized. It is also required to have a Bachelor’s or higher degree in the specified specialty or its equivalent.

 

Information Technology, Engineering, and Science are some of the fields that include H-1B specialty occupations.

 

USCIS uses the information offered in the Sections 3 and 2 or Part C of the Data Collection and Filing Fee Exemption Supplement – H-1B. This is to assist in determining if the application comes under the cap of 65,000 H-1B Visas mandated by the US Congress. It is also popular as the ‘regular cap’, as quoted by the USCIS Gov.

 

Below are some of the guidelines to ensure proper filing of your H-1B Cap-subject application:

  • The H-1B Cap-subject application can be filed not before 6 months of the date of the beginning of employment requested for the beneficiary
  • Complete all sections included in the petition Form I- 129. This is inclusive of the Data Collection and Filing Fee Exemption Supplement – H-1B and the H Classification Supplement.
  • Ensure that individual form has preferably black ink signature in the original. All signatures must be in compliance with PM-602-0134.1 - Signatures on Requests, Petitions, Paper Applications, and Other Documents Filed with USCIS
  • Correct fee amount must be included with signed money orders or cheques
  • All mandatory proofs and documents must be submitted with the application at the time of filing for ensuring timely processing
  • It must be ensured that the LCA - Labour Condition Application appropriately corresponds to the position in your application
  • The application must be submitted at the appropriate Servicer Centre of the USCIS
