Is it possible to change LCA after stamping is done

[ari3001jit]

Hi

Would anyone have an idea if it is possible to change the LCA after the H1B visa stamping is done. I need a change in the LCA because of a location change(in a different state). Everything else remains same(employer , client etc). Is a new client letter also necessary in such cases?

Regards

You anyhow would need a new LCA for the new location. You cannot work with the exisiting LCA at the new location. I would suggest that your employer go ahead with H1 amendment too to reflect the changed location. This is required because in a situation USCIS does a field visit as per current H1 petition address and does not find you there, it could cause issues.

This is my opinion not legal advice.
