USCIS Policy Memo on Adjudication of H-1Bs for Nursing Positions
This memo supersedes any prior guidance. This memo was previously issued on July 11, 2014 (AILA Doc. No. 14072241) as a policy memorandum. On August 15, 2014, USCIS re-issued the July 11, 2014, memo as an interim memo for comment (AILA Doc. No. 14081840). USCIS then issued a final policy memo, dated February 18, 2015, with guidance on the adjudication of H-1B petitions for nursing positions, including situations where an advanced practice registered nurse would qualify for an H-1B and what types of evidence could demonstrate specialty occupation.
