Multiple Organizations Call for Addressing Procedural Deficiencies in the H-1B Visa Registration Process

This letter, signed by multiple organizations representing stakeholders across the United States, urges the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to address the procedural deficiencies in the Fiscal Year 2024 H-1B Visa registration and lottery process. The letter highlights the significant increase in the number of H-1B registrations, particularly those with multiple registrations for the same individual, which raised concerns about fairness and potential misuse of the system. The undersigned organizations propose recommendations to improve the utilization of H-1B visas, increase transparency, and prevent fraud in future registration processes. They also emphasize the need for collaboration between DHS and Congress to reform the H-1B program to meet the demands of U.S. employers and support economic growth and innovation.
