PERM process says they should advertise in the paper. What if company has freeze in hiring in certain areas because it already has enough. If they wanted to do GC for its employee, how will the process work.
Technically, the employees on H-1 are only temps. Those positions are available. Recruitment is conducted against those permanent positions that are currently occupied by temporary workers.
Had a question regarding the EB-2 eligibility.My Perm was recently approved in EB-2 category.Had a question about education before we file the 140. I've a bachelors in Computing from UK which was a 3 year course and after that I have a Masters from UK in the computing which was a 1 year course. My question- is this qualification eligible of the EB-2 category. Just want to ensure that there is no RFE in 140.
Impossible to predict. It all depends upon the type of degrees and the language used in the Form ETA 9089
Hi, I would like to thank Rajiv S Khanna and Vijay Durgam for getting my PERM LCA Approved. Vijay was very helpful in preparing the paper works. It took more than what we expected almost 8 months of processing time. But without auditing it got approved. I would like to thanks Vijay for guiding us in preparing the required documents. Thanks Rachappa

I have applied perm under the category EB-3 on Dec-2008 and got a audit on June 2009 and replied the query in june 2009 itself.
I have 2 questions here:
1) Can I know the application status .Do i get any file number or something to check my status of this perm application applied under EB-3 category?
2) Requesting you to let me know the probable completion date of my PERM?
PERM times are on our web site. You cannot check the progress of the case, except through your employer. If they filed electronically, the application status should show where things are in terms of: pending, denied, approved only.
I am Mr. Jones, the employer. The employee, Mr. Smith, is no longer employed with us because of company's budget issue. However, we may hire him in the near future if circumstance changes.
My question:
Q1. Do we need to withdraw PERM LC for him that was submitted 2009?
Q2. Question from the employee, Mr. Smith:
If Mr. Smith filed an immigration benefit (e.g. visa, petition, change of status), does he need to answer YES / NO to the following question: "Has an immigrant petition ever been filed for you?" Basically: does submitting PERM/LC mean filing an immigrant petition? This question is often asked in application.
A1. I do not know of any law that requires an employer to withdraw a PERM application if an employee leaves or gets laid off, but the employer still retains a good faith intention to hire them back. When we first filed the PERM application, we filed it in good faith, asserting to the USDOL under penalty of perjury that:
You have enough funds available to pay the wage or salary offered the alien and you will be able to place the alien on the payroll on or before the date of the alien’s proposed entrance into the United States.
Hi: I would like to thank Mr. Rajiv Khanna for giving me and my employer some guidance on my case. The conference call with him was well worth the time and the money - his staff was very professional in setting it up and during the call he was very helpful and was not at all rushed. What I liked was even though we ran onto the next appointment's time he asked us to jump back in the call after sometime to make sure all our queries were answered. Thank You Again.
Thank you very much for your good quality work for my Green Card processing.
