Dear Stakeholder,
The Department has posted new Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for the H-1B, H-1B1 and E-3 Programs.

If your H-1B employer has stopped paying you, placed you at a work location different from the one listed on the Labor Condition Application (LCA), or otherwise violated the terms of your H-1B employment, you have a powerful and cost-free remedy available: filing a complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division (WHD).
