Employer in NJ, I work in TX, Need LCA for TX?

[pva1972]

Hi,

My wife's employer is located in NJ and She works in TX. Should an LCA be filed for TX or is NJ LCA sufficient? Because I think LCA is dependent on state where you work. I was of opinion that the LCA should be filed.

Her employer says that to file an LCA there have to be a companies branch in TX is that true? Is that required? I have never come across this comment.

Please advice on this and any links for more info if available.

Thanks

Perfectly true, the company from where the consultant works for should have their parent consulting company in that state. technically speaking your wife should get LCA from TXS and not NJ. But behind the scenes these consulting companies have their consultants all around USA.
