PERM Approval for Specialty Cook Beneficiary in Brazil and Mexican Restaurant Petitioner in Hauula Hawaii

CASE: PERM Labor Certification    
EMPLOYER: Mexican Restaurant in Hauula, HI
BENEFICIARY: Mexican Specialty Cook in Brazil

 

Our client is a Mexican restaurant in Hauula, HI. They had a prospective employee from Brazil and they were willing to petition her for an I-140. Their prospective employee has more than 2 years of experience as a Mexican Specialty Cook. Our firm concluded that they could petition her. They retained us on February 9, 2022. 

Before filing PERM, our firm prepared the prevailing wage request and all other steps essential to pre-PERM filing. On March 3, 2022, the request was filed.  After we got the PW determination, our office filed the job order on November 9, 2022.  On February 21, 2023, we filed PERM.  On May 6, 2024, the PERM Certification was approved – an EB3 position for the Brazilian beneficiary. Now our client can file the I-140 petition.
