Join Fragomen for a timely webcast discussing recent U.S. immigration developments—including the Presidential Proclamation establishing a new H-1B application fee—and the subsequent USCIS guidance clarifying its implementation. These updates are already shaping how employers plan for H-1B filings and manage global talent strategies. 

This session will serve as an update to our September webcast, providing the latest interpretation of the new fee requirements, including which petitions are covered, key exemptions and exceptions, and the implications for workforce and budget planning as organizations prepare for the FY 2027 H-1B cap season. 

Topics will include:

  • Impact of the Presidential Proclamation on employers and foreign nationals
  • Exemptions and exceptions from the new H-1B fee, as clarified by USCIS guidance
  • Implications for the upcoming H-1B cap season and petition planning timelines

Who should attend:

HR leaders, global mobility professionals, in-house counsel, and executives responsible for workforce planning and immigration strategy who want to understand how these recent policy developments may affect their organizations.
