Hi Stupida,


The reason why i asked if you had layer between your employer and client is the new memo from USCIS on jan 8, 10 and i belong in that category. The memo says that you have to have "employer to employer relation" which if i understood correctly means that your employer should be in direct contact with your client (your employer to issue PO to your client) and get paid for the service provided not that your employer gets paid by a subcontractor/s (middle layers). This concerns me!!!


Probably you got lucky at the port of entry that they didn't ask you if you are a third party contractor to your client and you didn't let them know that at all. My Indian colleague's friend was deported after the Port of Entry official found out that he was working as a third party contractor. I heard two other similar cases.


I personally think that you shouldn't let them know if you working as a 3rd party contractor to your client even if they ask. Why take the risk when many are being deported?
