United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the temporary suspension of premium processing for all FY 2021 cap-subject petitions. USCIS expects this suspension to last until no later than May 27, 2020 for FY 2021 cap-subject petitions requesting a change of status from F-1 nonimmigrant status.
USCIS predicts that the earliest date the agency will resume premium processing for all other cap-subject H-1B petitions is June 29, 2020.
During this time, USCIS will continue to accept premium processing requests for H-1B petitions that are not subject to the FY 2021 cap.
