Today (9/18/2017), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that the agency has resumed premium processing services for all H-1B visa petitions subject to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 cap. Both regular CAP and master's degree CAP cases are eligible for premium processing services. 

The agency suspended the use premium processing services at the beginning of the H-1B filing season. 

USCIS also plans to resume premium processing for all other remaining H‑1B petitions, "as agency workloads permit."
