Review this H-1B Registration Fact Sheet for Employers

The time is now! To file H-1B petitions subject to the FY2023 cap for an employee, you must first electronically register and pay a $10 fee for each electronic registration. The electronic registration includes basic information about the employer and employee. This year, registrations must be submitted between March 1 and March 18, 2022.

Employers are prohibited from submitting more than one registration for the same prospective H-1B employee. If an employer or its attorney submits more than one registration for the same H-1B candidate in a fiscal year, all registrations for that candidate will be invalid. USCIS has created a tool to allow employers and their attorneys to check for duplicate registrations.

Schedule a meeting with our office before the registration period to discuss prospective H-1B petitions and whether the job and the individual would qualify for an H-1B. You should also discuss the timing to file your H-1B petition with us. To do this, you should:

• Contact our office 630-262-1435
• Gather all relevant information about the job and the prospective employee’s qualifications.
• Set up an employer account on myUSCIS as an “H-1B registrant.” See USCIS’s PowerPoint presentation for more details.
