H-2B cap reached for the second half of FY 2022
March 3, 2022
For the second half of fiscal year (FY) 2022, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has received enough petitions to meet the congressionally mandated H2B cap. USCIS will continue to accept H-2B petitions that are exempt from the congressionally mandated cap. The exemptions include petitions for current H-2B workers in the U.S. who wish to extend their stay, change the terms of their employment, or change their employers. Fish roe processors, fish roe technicians, and supervisors of fish roe processing are also exempt. The final exemption includes workers performing labor or services in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and Guam.
