I-140 Ead Rule Launched

[andrafun]

• Yesterday, the USCIS officially submitted a proposed rule under the name of "Retention of EB-1, EB-2, and EB-3 Immigrant Workers and Program Improvements Affecting Highly-Skilled H-1B Alien Workers" to the OMB for its approval. The text is yet to be made available. We will post the full text as soon as it is made available. Please stay tuned.
• Good News: This proposed rule is presented as "Economically Significant" rule, meaning that OMB, if they agree, can clear it in a matter of days or within 30 days rather than 60 days or 90 days. The time table for this proposed rule is set at "December 2015!" Obviously, the proposed rule will set "comment" period as required under the APA rule-making law in order to initiate the interim final or final rule making process.
• Rule-Making Justification Summary Statement: "This rule provides needed stability and flexibility to certain employment-based immigrants while they wait to become lawful permanent residents. These amendments would support U.S. employers by better enabling them to hire and retain highly skilled and other foreign workers. DHS proposes to accomplish this, in part, by implementing certain provisions of ACWIA and AC21, as amended by the 21st Century DOJ Appropriations Act. The 21st Century DOJ Appropriations Authorization Act, which will impact certain foreign nationals seeking permanent residency in the United States, as well as H-1B workers. Further, by clarifying interpretive questions related to these provisions, this rulemaking would ensure that DHS practice is consistent with statute."
