yes, ask your immigration cp on what needs to be done. for us, we fill out a form on which client location we will be working on, how long, etc. and from that point the immigration team should take care of it

... this rule strictly and may even do site audit. Obviously, I’m not working for a body shop. But the nature of our jobs involves extensive travels. I haven’t been keeping track of my onsite time at clients. How do you guys deal with this and is this a big deal?

did you not submit your LCA when you worked outside your MSA? It is our responsibility to navigate this kind of thing even though it is really annoying.

Ask your immigration department

@SC1: Gotcha. So basically it’s on me to initiate the LCA filing? Immigration didn’t tell me anything until now when we need to file for my extension. What do you usually do? They just told me to keep track of my travels from now on and let them know if I think I will be out of my MSA on a client for more than 60 days

What do you do if you go to client site thinking that it's less than 30 days, but your project gets extended and you end up doing more than 30 days?

i stated i would only be in client site for 90 days, but been here for 10 months. once they file the LCA, got h1b amended, and you are good
