It is assumed that the USCIS California Service Center has also forwarded a comparable number of cases for review. This is an addition to the cases that are referred to the FDNS based on a standard profile worksheet, which is completed by the USCIS adjudicators as part of the regular H-1B adjudication process. Therefore, it appears that FDNS officers will be appearing at the offices of numerous H-1B employers (and their clients if the beneficiary is assigned to one of the employer’s clients) within the next few months to gather information about their compliance with the H-1B program.
