Reproduced below is an alert from the Department of Labor with reference to the Form ETA-9035. This form is the Labor Condition Application that must be filed and approved before an employer can file an H-1B petition with the USCIS. Recently, as of February 21, 2015, as can be seen from the below “trail” there have been errors reported to the DOL. These are technical glitches which could affect the approval of the Form ETA-9035, and possibly the H-1B petition that is filed pursuant to an approved LCA.

The USCIS has been made aware of these issues, and the USCIS has responded favorably and reasonably to this challenge.
