i have a company and our main strength is getting candidates from abroad namely India. I am now faced with questions from the consular abt client intent letters. I cannot produce that as our candidates come to the US and then get marketed. How do we handle this issue, I have 3 consultants waiting to go back to the consular.
Also now with the new rule for h1b filings for 2007 the picture is getting even more complicated.
USCIS is asking employers this:
8 CFR 214.2(h)(2)(B) requires that petitioners provide a detailed itinerary of the dates and places where work will be performed if those services will be provided in more than one location. For example, a labor contractor or consultant who hires H-1B workers to work at client sites must provide in advance an itinerary with dates and places where the worker will perform that work.
In addition, 8 CFR 214.1(c)(4) requires that an applicant for extension of status have maintained his or her nonimmigrant status. In situations in which an H-1B worker is changing to an employer other than the one for which the initial H-1B petition was approved, USCIS will require that the worker changing employers demonstrate that he or she actually did perform meaningful work for the original petitioning employer under circumstances not reflective of fraudulent intent in the original petition. In situations in which the H-1B worker is processing abroad, USCIS will work closely with the Department of State to ensure that this same level of integrity is applied to consular processed H-1Bs.
Have no idea what is to be done!!
Comments most welcome.
