USCIS has reached the cap for new H-2B temporary nonagricultural worker petitions for the latter half of FY 2024. March 7, 2024, was the final receipt date for such petitions seeking employment between April 1, 2024, and October 1, 2024. However, exemptions from the cap will still be accepted, including petitions for current H-2B workers seeking extensions or changes in employment terms, as well as those involved in fish egg processing roles.
