The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) is planning to step up its effort to conduct on-site inspections of H-1B visa employers to see whether employers that have sponsored workers for an H-1B visa are complying with the terms or are in violation of them.
The USCIS plans to conduct 25,000 on-site inspections in 2010. The immigration agency moved to boost enforcement of H-1B laws after an internal study released about a year ago disclosed widespread violations of H-1B rules by employers. The study found that one in five visa involved either fraud or “technical violations.”
