Does the law restore restrictions upon “H-1B dependent” employers?
The law restores the “non-displacement” requirement upon H-1B dependent employers. Generally, an H-1B dependent employer is one whose work force is composed of at least 15% H-1B workers. The non-displacement requirement prevents such employers from displacing U.S. workers with H-1B workers within the period beginning 90 days prior to, or 90 following, a petition for an H-1B worker.
