"The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to amend and clarify the regulations concerning the 9-11 Response & Biometric Entry-Exit Fee for H-1B and L-1 Visas (9-11 Biometric Fee). The proposed regulatory changes would clarify DHS’s interpretation of ambiguous statutory language to require that covered employers submit the 9-11 Biometric Fee for all extension-of-stay petitions, regardless of whether a Fraud Fee applies, so as to include extension-of-stay petitions that do not involve a change of employer. The 9-11 Biometric Fee would continue to apply unchanged to petitions seeking an initial grant of status. The proposed changes will also help DHS comply with its congressional mandate to implement a biometric entry-exit data system."
