USCIS Completes Initial H-1B Electronic Registration Selection Process and Extends Grace Period for New Form I-129

on March 30, 2021, USCIS completed the initial FY2022 H-1B cap-subject registration selection process. Additionally, USCIS extended the grace period for the new version of Form I-129 (the March 10, 2021, edition). Starting July 1, 2021, USCIS will only accept the March 10, 2021, edition of the form.

File form I-129

On October 12, 2017, USCIS changed the direct filing addresses for petitioners of Form I-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker. Petitioners must now file Form I-129 according to the state where the company or organization’s primary office is located. In addition, petitioners located in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Texas must now file Form I-129 at the California Service Center. As of November 11, 2017, USCIS may reject forms filed at wrong service centers.
