US H1B visa registrations for 2023 open March 1 2022

United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced that the initial registration period for the fiscal year (FY) 2023 H1B visa cap will run from March 1 to March 18, 2022. During this window, prospective H1B petitioners and representatives will be able to submit their registrations using the USCIS, online H1B registration system.

A USCIS statement said: “USCIS will assign a confirmation number to each H1B visa registration submitted for the FY 2023 cap. This number is used solely to track registrations; you cannot use this number to track your case status in Case Status Online.”

According to the USCIS, prospective H1B cap-subject petitioners or their representatives must use a myUSCIS online account to register each beneficiary electronically for the selection process, and pay the associated $10 H1B registration fee for each registration submitted on behalf of each beneficiary.
