Is H1 amendment needed in my Case ( most common issue in EV model)

[newbiess 0]

I got my H1 last year when working as a consultant at XXX (client) .Now I moved to YYY(clinet) recently 

Do i need to make an H1 amendment before i go to Canada for stamping ?

 

Some Background:

 

1) I work on EV model

2)I did not change the employer.

2) I am with this employer since 3 years

3) My LCA with YYY  is approved by the time i joined there.

 

 

 

As per my employer:  We dont need an amendment if we have approved LCA by the time we join new client.

 

 

 

Did anyone face such issue ? what was the response from employers in this case ?

i have undergone through the same thing. i did the amendment. my visa was approved on 19th aug with no PIMS record. the only thing is that i didn't get my passport yet

XXX (client) .Now I moved to YYY(clinet

 

If work locations at XXX & YYY are within 50 miles (OR) same metro area (Example NY Metro) then no need to file amendment

 

Gurus please confirm

LCA needs to be changed to the new client location (In your case i assume its already done looking at your previous posts). H1 amendment is also necessary when you are going for stamping.(Its always better to be on a safe side)
