The Department of Labor has announced that they are creating an email address for people to report violators of the provisions of the recently-published “no substitution” rule. Employers need to be aware of the fact that starting July 17th employees may not pay any part of the fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with preparing and filing a labor certification application. An employee can pay the fees and costs for filing the I-140 and adjustment of status. Violation of this rule can have serious repercussions.
