Title: 9-11 Response & Biometric Entry-Exit Fee for H-1B and L-1 Visas 
Abstract:

The 9-11 Response and Biometric Entry-Exit Fees for H-1B and L-1 Visas (9-11 Response Fees) are fees paid by certain employers of H-1B and L nonimmigrant workers. To implement Public Law 114-113, DHS proposes to amend and clarify the regulations to specify that the 9-11 Response Fees will apply to all H-1B and L-1 extension petitions in addition to all previously covered H-1B and L-1 petitions.
