Employment-Based Immigration for Foreign Workers
The process of permanent labor certification (referred to as PERM) is the most common way for employees to of obtain permanent residency in the United States. The PERM and labor certification process can be difficult. An experienced immigration law firm can help you complete the process correctly.
Certain occupations that are in urgent demand, or qualify for EB-1 visas, or EB-2 using a national Interest waiver, may not require the PERM / labor certification process. At Robert Brown LLC, our attorneys have the experience and knowledge necessary to fully assist your business.
Minimum Requirements for Labor Certification
In order for a PERM Labor Certification Application to be approved, an employer must show that it tried and failed to recruit any available and qualified workers that are already in the United States. This includes the placement of a notice in a newspaper or journal and on the business premises.
Rejections of applicants for the position may only be for lawful and job-related reasons. Employers may not discourage U.S. citizens or Lawful Permanent Residents from applying for the job or tell them that a foreign worker already filled the position.
At Robert Brown LLC, our lawyers can guide you through the PERM / labor certification process with confidence and help you meet all requirements.
