Planning for 2010 H-1B Submissions:
What you need to know!
Employers should take a look at their current workforce to see if any current employees, working pursuant to either F-1 Optional Practical Training or some other expiring status, would benefit from an H-1B petition. In light of the anticipated demand and timing issues created by the use of the new iCERT system for related labor condition applications, it is advised that preparation of cap-subject H-1B petitions begin immediately.
Klasko, Rulon, Stock & Seltzer, LLP is holding a free webinar on Wednesday, February 17, 2010 at 1:00pm to discuss planning H-1B submissions for the 2010 filing season. Last year, the cap was reached in December 2009. With this year's filing deadline of April 1, 2010 approaching and with demand for H-1Bs expected to increase this year, this program will outline the challenges facing employers seeking to recruit new employees and/or retain key personnel, and will provide strategies for dealing with those challenges.
Don’t miss this opportunity to discuss and learn from three of the nation’s leading attorneys on immigration and nationality law.
