I have a question regarding the labor advertisement.

I am a BA working in one location and my company is located in another state. In that case where should the advertisement be published for my labor ? Does it need to be national level? Anyone have similar experience. thanks for you help.

Thanks Stiffler, That's what few of my friends are telling too since GC is for future and not for present employment. Anyone esle have similar experience, please share.

 you need a very good desi lawyer because there are going to be hundres of applicants when you open that post publically, specially for BA. and i am sure you would like to file as eb2 too, don't you.

well, my lawyer is not desi and hopefully things move in the right direction. lets see what happens.

good luck

 good luck

it should be client location.  even you are hired by employer, client location is the place where you work. so in advertisement you need to give client location. basically location will be client location and contact will be your employer. i think it is confusing. But basic thing is noone of US candiadte in client location are good candidate so your employer is hiring you as foreign person to that position.

Thanks Karmayogi...

if you need further info, give me ur email.

My employer had filed a labor for me, I am a consultent too, in my case my labor is filed from the consultancy location not from client location.

we are talking about job advertisement here. is your job advertisement says in client location or consultancey location?

In my case there is nothing mentioned about client location. And SWA is also based on my consultancy address. GC application is for future employment, so it has nothing to do with your current job. Your lawyer will draft add. and every thing, so i dont think u need to worry abt it.

 my 2 cents, do not do EB3 unless you absolutely love your job and employer.

Yup my advertisement was also for consultancy location.

As per suggestion from lawyer, my employer give advertise for the job located in client location. One of my friend recommend that lawyer who already had my frends GC approved. i guess it all depends on lawyer.

yes it doesn't matter where the advertisement is filed for, the main goal is to get labor approved from the state where your labor is filed.

I talked with my lawyer too and he said it will be based on my work location - where i am working right now. So lets see what happens. i guess it does not matter as long as they present me as someone who will continue working in this location. that is what he said.

Does anyone have any idea about the processing time for labor certification these days?
