Change of Client and Location after my H1B extension got approved

Recommended Posts

My I-140 got approved in 2015 and applied for H1B extension, got approved in Nov 2016 for Client A & Location X
 
Now the client is changed to Client B & Location is Y (My Employer being the same). I am still in the same MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area), even though changed client.

My VISA stamping got expired in Aug, 2016. Now, I am planning to visit India in May, 2017.

What are the necessary STEPS / PROCESS I need to take care of when I go for stamping for a client other than the one approved in petition ?
 
Should my employer file an amendment for change of Client & Location, which will take 5-6 months or only LCA will work?

Please guide me on this situation, I am very tensed on what & how things will go?

Appreciate your help on this !!

If the client is in same MSA you don't need an amendment.
