a*****a 发帖数: 1385 | 1 WASHINGTON — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) resumed
premium processing today for all H-1B visa extension of stay petitions.
Premium processing is now available for all types of H-1B petitions.
H-1B visas provide skilled workers for a wide range of specialty occupations
, including information technology, engineering, and mathematics. When a
petitioner requests the agency’s premium processing service, USCIS
guarantees a 15-calendar day processing time. If that time is not met, the
agency will refund the petitioner’s premium processing service fee and
continue with expedited processing of the application.
In addition to today’s resumption of premium processing for H-1B visa
extension of stay petitions, USCIS had previously resumed premium processing
for H-1B petitions subject to the annual cap, petitions filed on behalf of
physicians under the Conrad 30 waiver program, as well as interested
government agency waivers and certain H-1B petitions that are not subject to
the cap.
For more information on how the H-1B visa program is being used, visit the
Buy American, Hire American: Putting American Workers First page. This page
provides data and information about the hiring practices of employers who
use H-1B visas to hire foreign workers.
