CASE: PERM Labor Certification
EMPLOYER: Public School District
BENEFICIARY: Filipino Secondary Physical Education Teacher
LOCATION: Jemez Pueblo, NM
Our client has a current employer that was willing to petition for an I-140. Our client has a Bachelor’s degree in Physical Education, a teaching license, and has worked for his employer since January 2022. Based on our client’s working background, our office determined that he was eligible for EB-3 classification for his I-140 petition. Our client retained us in May 2022.
Prior to filing PERM, our firm prepared the prevailing wage request and all other steps which are important pre-PERM filing. Within a week from our retention, the request was filed. After obtaining the PW determination, the employer filed the job order on January 23, 2023. On April 6, 2023, we filed PERM.
On May 6, 2024, the PERM Labor Certification was approved – an EB3 position for the Filipino beneficiary. Our client can file the I-140 petition at any time.
