The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services announced that it
will temporarily suspend fast processing for H-1B visa applications from for
-profit companies until early September, according to a report in the San
Francisco Chronicle. Premium processing means that employers can pay an
extra fee to expedite a response (to 15 days) on their petition to employ a
foreigner. The suspension applies only to for-profit companies, which is
already capped at 85,000 visas — meaning that non-profits and research
institutions are not affected. The agency said the move is to speed up
overall processing times just weeks ahead of the 2019 application season.
President Trump has vowed to end the H-1B regime in favor of a Canadian-
style, skills-based immigration system.
