USCIS announces FY2024 H-1B lottery registration period
On 1/27/2023, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that the registration period for the fiscal year 2024 H-1B cap will open at noon Eastern on March 1 and run through noon Eastern on March 17, 2023.

During this period, prospective petitioners or their attorneys/representatives will be able to complete and submit H-1B registrations using the USCIS’ online H-1B registration system – myUSCIS. As with prior years, the USCIS filing fee per case registered will be $10.

USCIS will assign a confirmation number to each registration submitted for the FY 2024 H-1B cap. This number is used solely to track registrations; and cannot be used to track case status on the USCIS website.

Prospective petitioners will need to use a “registrant” account in myUSCIS. Registrants will be able to create new accounts beginning at noon Eastern on February 21. Petitioners who have participated in the H-1B lottery in prior years should check to make sure they can still access their myUSCIS account. If not, you will need to wait until noon on February 21 to create a new account as the "registrant" option will not be available before then.

If USCIS receives enough registrations by March 17, USCIS will randomly select registrations and send selection notifications via users’ myUSCIS online accounts.

If USCIS does not receive enough registrations, all registrations that were properly submitted in the initial registration period will be selected.

USCIS intends to notify account holders by March 31.
