COMPLAINT FILED AGAINST USCIS EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE/THIRD PARTY PLACEMENT MEMO

On January 8, 2010, USCIS issued a very troublesome Memo which changed decades of immigration law. The Memo changed the definition of “employer” for immigration petitions in a way that makes it more difficult for owners of companies to obtain non-immigrant visas. It also makes it more difficult for computer consulting companies to obtain H-1B visas for their consultants. The complaint, which includes an application for preliminary injunction, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. Hopefully, this lawsuit will lead to a settlement or a favorable verdict so that the more unreasonable aspects of this Memo will be ameliorated.
