    Default LCA Online Time Period for Start of Employment

    I'm handling the legwork for my H1-B to save costs for my employer, and have begun filling out the LCA Online form ETA 9035E.

    I have read that this year there are new procedures in place that will cause LCA to take longer than in previous years (e.g. one week or more instead of a few minutes), and the typical recommendation is to start early by filing LCA asap.

    The form ETA 9035E returns the following error when the "Begin Date" is entered as 10/01/2009 (i.e. issue date of H1-B):

    "...cannot list a beginning date of need more than 183 days from today's date.

    Pressing OK will result in a denied LCA"

    Excuse me, but WTF? If this is true, then no one will receive LCA approval prior to the first day for H1B petitions (3/31/2009).

    Is there something I'm missing here?

    Default Re: LCA Online Time Period for Start of Employment

    Were you applying for an H-1 extension for yourself or helping your employer by applying H-1 for someone else?
    Do you know when the new procedures would go into effect (exact date)? Do you know if the LCA is needed for first time H-1 applicants only or for applicants who are also filing for H-1 extension and/or H-1 transfer?
    Isn't LCA part of the Green card process?
    I was under the impression that all you needed was a form I-129 petition for H-1 transfers or extensions.
