H-1B petition requirements

The DHS has modernized the H-1B program to clarify specialty occupation requirements, improve flexibility for employers and workers, and strengthen program integrity. Key changes include updated rules for cap-exempt organizations, automatic extensions for F-1 students changing to H-1B, and stricter compliance measures such as site visits and bona fide job verification. These updates aim to align the H-1B program with modern workforce needs while maintaining fairness and transparency.
