How long does it take to file an LCA and can we start working in the new location once it's filed ?

LCA needs to be followed by H1B application before starting to work. Can not work with just LCA.

Nope got to wait for the LCA to come though and application to USCIS before start working. LCA only takes about 4 days. Once you apply for H1 transfer with LCA and other supporting docs, you can start after receipt of application by USCIS

Don't know about how they do it in Deloitte but PwC has a fairly simple process. We just email to pwc-law and they ask us to fill a simple form. And they take care of the rest. Usually it takes 3 weeks before you can start.

You Are contradicting yourself.. so can we work once we get the receipt or should we wait till it comes through ?

Same employer , different client or moving to other employer

Just different client. Same company

SC1 is right.

Thanks folks ! Given the short week, I was wondering if I can finish all these before starting the project.

Our lawyers suck

You can work on a new client for 28 working days without LCA and amendment. If you are going to work more than 28 working days over a year at client location , file LCA and amendment before 28 days.

So , you can start working at client site , and then initiate the process, assuming the application process takes less than 2 weeks.

* Less than 4 weeks.

Ey1 that's good news but I don't think Deloitte follows that policy ! If thats the case, the project is just 4 weeks long , so I can get away without an LCA.

Found a most enlightening work on decolonial history with tons of TIL moments especially about Anti Colonial movements in Egypt, China, Japan and course India in the 19th and 20th centuries. Most histories this period often adopt a Euro-centric lens but this book flips it and tells the stories of these turbulent times from the vantage point of the pioneering Asian leaders like Tagore, Al Afghani, Kang Youwei etc. Lovers of Asian history would surely appreciate this book
