Has the CSC received new guidelines on the processing of H-1B cases for consulting companies?

0

If so, please share what the guidelines require. If not, please explain how such cases are currently adjudicated. No, we are not aware of any new guidelines on processing H-1B cases for consulting companies. Such cases are currently adjudicated on a case by case basis. • H-1B quota: How close is the INS to reaching the H-1B quota for this fiscal year? This question should be addressed to HQ. • Leave of absence for H-1B holders: What is the CSC s position on the following: if an H-1B nonimmigrant takes extensive (for example 4 months) but voluntary personal leave under the FMLA, is he still considered to be in valid nonimmigrant status for purposes of adjustment of status? It is difficult to answer this question without additional specific information. However, if the FMLA (for example, maternity leave) is taken while an individual is a nonimmigrant and the employer views the H-1B holder as an employee of the petitioning company, they could be viewed as maintaining valid status.
