CASE: PERM Labor Certification
EMPLOYER: Food Company Petitioner in Christiansted, VI
BENEFICIARY: Filipino Warehouse Supervisory Training Specialist
Our client is from the Philippines. His prospective employer was willing to do an immigration petition for him, third-preference. Our client has a Bachelor’s degree in Education. After talking to our client, our firm concluded that his employer can petition him as a Warehouse Supervisory Training Specialist. Based on our client’s education and working background, our office determined that he is eligible for EB-3 classification.
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 PERM could be filed at least 60 days from the job posting date or 30 days from the last ad. On January 21, 2019, the prevailing wage request was filed. After we obtained Prevailing Wage determination, our office filed the job order on May 10, 2019. On September 7, 2019, we promptly filed PERM. Eventually, on December 18, 2019, the PERM Labor Certification was approved – an EB3 position for the Filipino beneficiary. Now our client can file the I-140 petition.
