GC Compliance for Employers
Some of our employees' Green cards
have been filed. There projects have ended. They are working on H-1 but possess EAD and have 140 approved and 485 pending more than 180 days.
Quote: (1) If we revoke their H-1, are we still required to pay full wages if our clients say they do not currently have a project for our employees?
Ans. You are not required to pay "bench salaries" for employees whose H-1 are revoked (remember you must inform CIS and offer employee a one-way ticket home). But we then have exposure to the questions, "do you still have a "permanent" job for them?" If the answer is no, then their GC processing can be interrupted unless they use AC21 portability.
Really great service with timely and helpful consultation. Rena has been very good coordinator and communicator. She has been very responsive and courteous at all times. Mr Khanna was also very helpful and was available whenever required. His expertise is always commendable. Thanks a lot for all your help.
