U.S. Department of Labor's Administrative Review Board awards H-1B nonimmigrant $304,000 in back wages

|

The Department of Labor's Administrative Review Board held an employer liable pursuant to the employer's obligations under the Labor Condition Application (LCA) and the H-1B provisions under the Immigration & Nationality Act (INA).

The employer failed to pay the H-1B beneficiary, even though the employer was obligated pursuant to the LCA. 

Conclusion:

  1. H-1B Employers must be careful to carefully fulfill their obligations.
  2. H-1B Employees should contact a competent attorney if they are concerned about their employers actions.
