“The Biden administration’s first published regulatory agenda—announcing agency rulemaking priorities for the remainder of the year—reveals substantive changes to the H-1B visa program for high skilled workers.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is planning to amend the H-1B program by redefining the employer-employee relationship, clarifying when USCIS must be notified about a change in H-1B employment and establishing rules for employer site visits, while the Department of Labor (DOL) is going ahead with a Trump-era proposal to increase prevailing wages for the H-1B and PERM (employment-based green card visa) programs.”
