Premium Processing H-1B Begins 5/12

Premium Processing H-1B Petitions

USCIS has announced that it will begin adjudicating H-1B petitions that have been accepted through Premium Processing on May 12. Even though a receipt notice issued for the H-1B petition that was filed through premium processing may read another date (most likely an April date), USCIS is considering the 15 day period for premium processing to begin on May 12. Even if a petition is approved in May, the beneficiary of an approved H-1B through the cap-subject lottery is not allowed to begin working on H-1B status until October 1.
