The requirement will help simplify the process and strengthen it as a whole. The rule specifies the permitted start dates for H-1B employment, allowing filings that begin after October 1 of the relevant fiscal year. This provides more flexibility and clarity for applicants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USCIS now has formalized authority to deny or revoke petitions containing false attestations or invalid registrations, thereby ensuring the process&#8217;s integrity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fee_Schedule_and_Electronic_Filing\"><\/span><b>Fee Schedule and Electronic Filing<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With these changes, a new Fee Schedule rule will be introduced after the initial registration period for FY 2025. Also, USCIS is improving the process by introducing organizational accounts and online filing for certain forms, a step toward a fully electronic system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The registration period for the FY 2025 H-1B cap begins March 6, 2024, and ends March 22, 2024. On February 28, 2024, USCIS will set up organizational accounts to facilitate collaboration on H-1B registrations, petitions, and associated forms. The online filing of Forms I-129 and I-907 for non-cap H-1B applications will begin on the same date.<\/span><\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Also_Read_US_introduces_renewable_H-1B_visas_for_Indian_IT_Professionals\"><\/span><strong>Also Read:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/34.228.189.90\/us-introduces-renewable-h-1b-visas-for-indian\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">US introduces renewable H-1B visas for Indian IT Professionals<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While traditional paper filing is still an option, online filing will be available beginning April 1, 2024.
