WASHINGTON — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will resume
premium processing for certain cap-exempt H-1B petitions effective
immediately. The H-1B visa has an annual cap of 65,000 visas each fiscal
year. Additionally, there is an annual “master’s cap” of 20,000 petitions
filed for beneficiaries with a U.S. master’s degree or higher.
Premium processing will resume for petitions that may be exempt from the cap
if the H-1B petitioner is:
* An institution of higher education;
* A nonprofit related to or affiliated with an institution of higher
education; or
* A nonprofit research or governmental research organization.
Premium processing will also resume for petitions that may also be exempt if
the beneficiary will be employed at a qualifying cap-exempt institution,
organization or entity.
Starting today, those cap-exempt petitioners who are eligible for premium
processing can file Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing Service for
Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker. Form I-907 can be filed
together with an H-1B petition or separately for a pending H-1B petition.
USCIS previously announced that premium processing resumed on June 26 for H-
1B petitions filed on behalf of physicians under the Conrad 30 waiver
program as well as interested government agency waivers.
USCIS plans to resume premium processing of other H-1B petitions as
workloads permit. USCIS will make additional announcements with specific
details related to when we will begin accepting premium processing for those
petitions. Until then, premium processing remains temporarily suspended for
all other H-1B petitions. USCIS will reject any Form I-907 filed for those
petitions, and if the petitioner submitted one check combining the Form I-
907 and Form I-129 fees, USCIS will have to reject both forms.
