daliangaurav Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Hello, I am in an urgent need of advice to face an employer. I am currently working for Company A. Company B interviewed and offered me a new job and agreed to file H1-B and GC just before the shutdown. I accepted the offer and sent all the required paperwork. But,due to shutdown the process was not started. After 1 week of government reopen, I asked Company B that I see an issue that I will not qualify for EB2 category (in which my current GC is in) and if this cannot resolve, I would not want to join Company B. After a lot of discussion, I said no to the offer. Now, Company B is coming back and asking for the legal fee of $2200 for LCA filing. Initially, they were asking for remittance of H1-b filing, but, I notified them that this is illegal. My question is, am I liable to pay them $2200 legal fee for the LCA process? Is it not the employer who bears this cost? Thanks. Link to comment

You are right. So forget about them and concentrate on your work. If he tries to threaten you then tell them that you will file a complaint against them. Link to comment
t75 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Some fees may be paid by the employee. What is required depends on the contract and the source of the charge. Link to comment
