USCIS Reminds Petitioners to Provide Approved Labor Condition Applications

Posted by

WASHINGTON - U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it will not extend the period in which it temporarily accepted H-1B petitions filed with uncertified Labor Condition Applications (LCAs).

Due to processing delays associated with Department of Labor's (DOL) "iCERT" system, USCIS responded to requests from the public and temporarily allowed H-1B petitions to be filed with uncertified LCAs. This temporary measure went into effect on November 5, 2009 and expired on March 9, 2010.

As of March 10, 2010, USCIS will reject any H-1B petition filed without an LCA certified by DOL.
