    H-1B Visa News Comments Off on HR/LEGAL ALERT: Plan now for New H-1B Petitions To Be Filed April 1-5, 2019

    H-1B Cap Season Is Upon Us!

    This is a reminder to all U.S. employers of the rapidly approaching April 2019 deadline for the filing of H-1B cap cases for Fiscal Year 2020. USCIS will start accepting cap-subject petitions on Monday, April 1, 2019.

    Given continued pent-up demand, we fully expect the H-1B cap to be reached during the first week of April.  As usual, USCIS will continue to accept petitions during the first five (5) business days; i.e., through Friday April 5, 2019.  As such, we strongly encourage you to identify any employees who may require H-1B sponsorship and contact us as soon as possible to begin preparing your H-1B petitions for a timely filing.

    If you have questions in connection with any of the foregoing, please contact Anthony F. Siliato and Scott R. Malyk of our firm’s Immigration Law Group.
