Applicants for the H-1B visa hoping to accelerate their submissions by paying extra for “premium processing” won’t be able to obtain that service when this year’s application period opens April 1, federal authorities announced.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration has temporarily suspended premium at the start of each H-1B application “season” since 2017.

The agency said the move, for applicants subject to the annual cap on new visas, would “help us to reduce overall H-1B processing times.”
