No worries about the delayed response, and you're absolutely right about the importance of monitoring visa status during the PERM process.

Hi,
Please see my response below.
should I amend the H1B visa location or should I amend any location details mentioned in the PERM form 9089?
Answer: According to H1B, If there is any material change then you will need to file an Amendment. But, GC is future Employment. Upon approval of GC, you will be started working on concern location. If there is any change on that then you will need to run new PWD and PERM. You can not amend PERM Application.
Or will my employer need to file the 9089 all over again mentioning work location as location B?
Answer: Dont just compare with H1B location. Both will have different track. If any location change at present then file H1B Amendment. If any location change will happen in future then you will need to run again PERM filing.
Or at PERM stage does the location fields hold no value?
Answer: it will be valid at the time you get GC.
Thanks

Thank you so much for the reply. But you got banned 😐

Changing visa types during the PERM (Program Electronic Review Management) process can impact a foreign worker's eligibility for permanent residency in the US. If a worker's visa status changes, they must notify their employer and file a new PERM application

Navigating visa changes during the PERM process demands careful attention to maintain eligibility for US permanent residency. Prompt communication with employers and adherence to legal procedures are paramount.
