USCIS Changes to Direct Filing Addresses for Form I-129 Petitions

https://www.uscis.gov/news/alerts/changes-direct-filing-addresses-form-i-129-petitions
On October 12, 2017, USCIS will change the direct filing addresses for certain petitioners of Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker. The changes are as follows:

  • Petitioners will now file Form I-129 according to the state where the company or organization’s primary office is located. Previously, petitioners filed Form I-129 based on the beneficiary’s temporary employment or training location.
  • Petitioners located in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Texas will now file Form I-129 at the California Service Center.

Starting November 11, 2017, USCIS may reject Form I-129s that are filed at the wrong service center.
The I-129 Form is the most often employer sponsored U.S. employment authorization. The H, E, L, O visas are among the most common I-129 petitions. We are very successful in preparing and obtaining nonimmigrant visas for employers and subsequent immigrant visas and green cards for their employees. We prepare hundreds of such petitions each year. We offer excellent service at a competitive price. Of course, price isn’t everything. We are known for our availability, responsiveness, timeliness, professionalism and expertise. You might find out more about the Form I-129 employer sponsored visas on our website.
