@raghvi....Thanks for quick reply.
"After changing your end client, did your job duties change significantly?"
No. None of my job duites have been changed from what I have mentioned when I applied for H1B.
"Was it for a different location in an area of employment not listed on the original LCA?"
Yes. I am now working in the different location. I used to work in NYC when I got H1B now I am in SanDiego. So, Original LCA when I applied for H1B shows NYC now I have taken another LCA for the present location which shows Sandiego.Last edited by syarabolu; 12-31-2012, 04:24 PM.

This is my opinion not legal advice.

I need advice/input on below question .
I got my H1B in feb 2013 and came here in May 2013 for client A. After coming here i joined client B in June without new lca and h1b amendment as client A did not have opening that time.
My company filled again for extension with Client B in August as my visa was also approved for a year. While filling for extension they got new lca in august and my extension got approved in November.
I am going to India for stamping so just wanted to know in my client letter i need to show the work period from June or November
Thanks-Senthil
