What You Need to Know
All legal representative account holders and all organizations with an H-1B registrant account, as well as new users, will experience new account enhancements, including improved design and case management features.

H-1B petitioners will be able to file Forms I-129 and associated Form I-907 premium processing requests online through their organizational account, have a legal representative file online on their behalf, or file a paper-based Form I-129. The H-1B registration process is only available online.

USCIS conducted usability testing on the organizational account with individuals who serve a variety of roles in the H-1B registration and petition filing processes, including employers, human resources personnel, attorneys, and paralegals. The feedback received resulted in enhancements to content and improvements in interactions and functionality throughout the organizational account.

USCIS will continue to seek feedback from users of the organizational account and release enhancements to the experience in the future.
