• 02/28/2018: Time for Collaboration Between Consulting Service Providers and Their Clients under the Changing H-1B and L-1 Visa Environment as Part of Trump Administration's Action of Buy American, Hire American Executive Order

• The Trump Administration has initiated two restrice policies to implement this Executive Order as follows:
  • Policy Memorandum of October 23, 2017 on "Rescission of Guidance Regarding Deference to Prior Determinations of Eligibility in the Adjudication of Petitions for Extension of Nonimmigrant Status," that repealed traditional policy of "deference" of past decision of the agency in adjudicating H-1B extension petitions. Ever since this new policy was implemented, the H-1B employers and H-1B foreign workers have encountered mountain of RFEs and a lot of denial of extension of H-1B status for the H-1B foreign workers.
  • Policy Memorandum of February 22, 2018 on "Contracts and Itineraries Requirements for H-1B Petitions Involving Third-Party Worksites," that mandates collaboration of the entities that need the technical services by consulting businesses and their foreign workers to provide evidence for their detailed needs for the existence and need for such "specialty" services, without which the adjudicators of H-1B petitions would be able to deny H-1B petitions.
• The attacks against the H-1B program will not end there. Sooner or later this year, the Trump Administration will implement a reform of H-1B cap selection criteria from current random selection lottery method to highest wage offer selection method, that will affect small and medium size employers devastatingly. Employers, BEWARE!!!
