From USCIS: H-1B and L-1 petitions filed on or after
Oct. 1, 2015, should not include the additional fee that was previously
required by Section 402 of Public Law 111-230, as amended by Public Law
111-347, for certain H-1B and L-1 petitions.
The additional fee required
by Public Law 111-230, as amended, expired on Sept. 30, 2015.
All
other H-1B and L-1 fees, including the Base fee, Fraud Prevention and
Detection Fee, and American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement
Act of 1998 (ACWIA) Fee when applicable, are still required.
Petitions
with incorrect fees may be rejected. Petitioners are reminded that USCIS
prefers separate checks for each filing fee.
Public Law 111-230,
enacted on Aug. 13, 2010, required an additional fee of $2,000 for
certain H-1B petitions and $2,250 for certain L-1A and L-1B petitions
postmarked on or after Aug. 14, 2010. Public Law 111-347, enacted on
Jan. 2, 2011, extended the fees through Sept. 30, 2015.
For more
