Now is the time. If you are hoping to hire or retain an employee who will need a first-time H-1B, you must act now. The H-1B registration is set to expire at noon on March 25, 2021, eastern time. We need lead time to open your account, gather documents and information, and prepare the online registration form. Please let us know right away if you wish to submit a name into the registration lottery. If all goes well, USCIS plans to notify registrants by March 31, 2021. We stand ready to submit your registration.
