Answer

Yes, but employer must file LCA for your work location:

  • If you work from home office, LCA must cover that location
  • If you travel frequently, may need multiple LCAs
  • Prevailing wage based on work location, not employer location
  • Employer must post LCA notice at work location

Important: Working from unapproved location violates H-1B. Always inform employer of location changes.
