Hi,

My H1B & LCA is expiring on Dec 30 2017. My firm has not yet initiated the H1B & LCA process. What would be a safe cutoff time for my employer to file my LCA+LCA approval H1B Filing process. I mean till what date can I wait to know if they are processing my visa or not.

Also is there a regulation or law where company has to inform the employee within certain amount of time if they decide not to process my Visa.

There isn't a regulation that employer should inform the employee.

Usually if all done in right way, they can start the process and send the documents to USCIS within a week to 2 weeks timeline before expiry.

If you think that they are not going to file extension, its high time you find new job/employer who is ready to file H1B.
