GC Sponsor Company Credibility

[arunkr]

If the GC sponsoring is reported to DOL or USCIS about its malpractices regarding H1, Labor etc., what could be impact on one's H1 or in particular on I140 and I485 - especially if I140 is approved for < or > 180 days?

Also, can we check how DOL/USCIS view the credibility of the company on DOL/USCIS web-sites?

Thanks

If USCIS finds fraud/malpractice involved in a specific case, it can deny I-140 and I-485 regardless it their status - whether they are approved or pending for more than 180 days.

Also, can we check how DOL/USCIS view the credibility of the company on DOL/USCIS web-sites?

No. Unless the case goes to immigration court, all the case information in USCIS are not public. On the other hand, DOL records are always public. DOL/USCIS does not care about "credibility of the company". In general, they determine each case on its merit - case by case basis.

To make my question clearer, assume my H1, labor, I140, i485 are all fairly handled. If company is doing fraud/malpracticing in regard to other cases, and USCIS takes some action on the company -- will my h1 status and gc processing be affected.

It depends on the type of fraud. For example, if in "other cases" the company obtained LC, I-140 based on the positions that don't exist at all, but your job position is a valid one, then your case won't be affected. But if, for example, company cooked up the data/information about ability-to-pay for "other cases", that can affect your case too. Basically you have to see the item that has been manipulated by company to commit a fraud and if your case has any relationship with that item.

In one word, it's difficult to generalize and answer in one or two words. If you have have specific concern about your company you can post in this forum or PM to some of the experienced forum members - like ginnu, RealCanadian, unitednation.
