The US released a revised edition of Form I-129, the petition for a non-immigrant worker, in alignment with the newly announced H-1B and H-2 modernisation final rules. The H-1B non-immigrant visa category enables US organisations to temporarily hire foreign professionals for roles classified as “specialty occupations”.
The updated version of Form I-129 will replace the form issued on April 1, 2024, with no grace period provided to ensure the implementation of the final rules. Starting January 17, 2025, the USCIS will reject any petitions submitted using the previous version of the form.
