CASE: PERM Labor Certification
EMPLOYER: Rubber Production Company in Burbank, CA
BENEFICIARY: Filipina Supply Chain Director in the Philippines
Our client has a prospective employer that was willing to petition her for a third-preference petition (I-140). Our client has a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and currently works in the Philippines. Based on our client’s education and background, our office determined that she is clearly eligible for EB-3 classification for her I-140 petition. Our client eventually retained us in November 2019.
Prior to filing PERM, 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 application could be filed at least 60 days from the job posting date or 30 days from the last ad. Within a week from our retention, the prevailing wage request was filed. After we obtained the PW determination, the job order was filed on April 21, 2020. On August 14, 2020, we promptly filed PERM.
Eventually, on March 26, 2021, the PERM Labor Certification was approved – an EB3 position for the Filipina beneficiary. Our client can file the I-140 petition at any time.
