PERM Labor Certification
Call Our Louisiana Immigration Lawyer (337) 214-0670
Through Program Electronic Review Management (PERM), certain foreign nationals are able to obtain labor certification and take a step towards an employment-based immigrant visa. In order to qualify for the PERM process, an employer must test the current labor market to find U.S. citizens or permanent residents who are able, willing, and qualified to work a certain job. If sufficient evidence is shown that there are none available, the employer may then submit a PERM labor certification application in order to bring in foreign workers for labor.
If you are an employer and need guidance with the program, contact our PERM labor certification lawyer in Louisiana online or call (337) 214-0670. ¡Hablamos Español!
