We
are in the midst of the H-1B season. If you have not yet begun to
prepare the H-1B for the April 1st filing date, do not despair. It is
not too late. It will take about a week or so to submit and receive an
approval for the Labor Condition Application (LCA - Form 9035) from the
U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) but there is still time. The most
important thing to do now is to immediately ask your employer to submit
an H-1B Petition on your behalf.

To
quote a famous Greek Philosopher, "there is one thing that will always
remain constant . . . and that is . . . change". This past week, we
continued to ride the U.S. immigration law roller-coaster! Last week,
one of our Managing Attorneys visited our Office in Indiana and
conducted speaking engagements at academic and non-academic
organizations in the Greater Indianapolis area. It was clear that
attendees were uneasy about Judge Hanen's issuance of a Temporary
Restraining Order (TRO) in response to President Obama's Executive
Actions in November. Many folks continue to be uneasy about the future
viability of President Obama's immigration plan. As we have previously
stated, we remain cautiously optimistic that the Executive Actions will
proceed after the TRO is dissolved. The President continues to vow that
he will use all of the tools available to him (and his Administration)
to make that happen.
