Now that we have seen the automated H-1B lottery system in action for one year, what have we learned? What should be done differently this year with more time to prepare? Panelists will discuss pros and cons of the new system and address general issues of filing CAP cases in 2021 based on the current landscape for H-1Bs.


Featured Topics

  • Lessons Learned from the First Year Using the New System
  • Planning and Tips for H-1B Filings Using the Automated System
  • Current Trends in H-1Bs and How They Affect CAP Filings
  • Internal Processes and Billing for the New Lottery System
