"LIFE" Legislation and New H-1B Interim Final Regulations

"LIFE" implementation: The President WILL SIGN the "LIFE" provisions on Thursday, December 21. The INS will be developing its own guidelines for the implementation of these new provisions of law, and we will make those available the moment we receive them.

H-1B ACWIA Regulations: The Department of Labor issued interim final regulations on the previously enacted H-1B ACWIA legislation today, December 20, 2000. The new regulations are very lengthy (150-plus Federal Register pages), and may be slow to download.
