Tracking Usage of the H-1B and H-2B Nonimmigrant Classifications

This rule proposes to amend the Immigration and Naturalization Service's (Service) regulations by explaining in detail the new method by which the Service tracks the number of H-1B and H-2B petitions approved in a fiscal year and by removing incorrect references in the regulation regarding the tracking mechanism. This rule was written in response to a number of queries from the public asking how the Service determines which H-1B and H-2B petitions are included in the count. This rule will alleviate much of the confusion regarding the Service's method of counting H-1B and H-2B petitions.
