CASE: PERM Labor Certification
EMPLOYER: Culture Center
BENEFICIARY: Chinese Educational Services Market Research Analyst
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client’s beneficiary is Chinese, who is currently working at a culture center in Cleveland, OH on an H-1B. The company was willing to do an immigration petition for her, second-preference. Our client has a Master’s degree in Business Administration.
After talking to our client, our firm concluded that her employer can petition her as an Educational Services Market Research Analyst. Based on the beneficiary’s educational background and the position offered, our office did PERM with an EB-2 classification.
Prior to filing PERM labor certification, our firm prepared the prevailing wage request, job order, advertisements, internal job posting, recruitment report, and all other steps which are important pre-PERM filing. Take note that the PERM Labor Certification application could be filed at least 60 days from the job posting date or 30 days from the last ad.
On September 26, 2014, the prevailing wage request was filed. On January 28, 2015, we filed the PERM labor certification application. Eventually, on August 19, 2015, the PERM labor certification was approved – an EB2 position for the Chinese Educational Services Market Research Analyst, WITHOUT any audits. Now our client can file an I-140 Petition.
