Can you provide some information on adjudication of H-1B petitions filed on behalf of the registered nurses?
The purpose of the memorandum is to provide field offices with guidance on adjudication of H-1B petitions when the beneficiary is a registered nurse (RN). This memorandum clarifies that while typical RNs generally do not meet the requirements for H-1B classification, foreign nationals in certain specialized RN occupations are more likely than typical RNs to be eligible for H-1B status.
