I tried the same thing. Its working. Please check the getters and setters name of your classes. It may be due to that.

<h:inputText value="#{registration.userInfo.firstName}"

Make sure that registration.getUserInfo() doesn't return null. With other words, instantiate it. You can instantiate it directly in the property declaration or assign it from somewhere inside the constructor or initialization block of the backing bean class.
