CASE: PERM Labor Certification
EMPLOYER: Seafood & Steak Restaurant
BENEFICIARY: Canadian
LOCATION: Naples, FL
Our client is a Seafood & Steak restaurant in Naples, FL. They had a prospective employee from Canada and they were willing to petition him for a skilled worker, third-preference petition (I-140). Their prospective employee has more than 2 years of experience as a Mediterranean Specialty Cook. We were retained on March 3, 2020.
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 March 18, 2020, the prevailing wage request was filed. After we got the PW determination, our office filed the job order on August 19, 2020. On November 20, 2020, we promptly filed PERM. Eventually, on May 27, 2021, the PERM Labor Certification was approved – an EB3 position for the Canadian beneficiary. Now our client can file the I-140 petition.
