An employment-based immigrant visa permits an employee to work, stay, and live in the United States permanently. An application for permanent residence (“green card”) through employment is a very complicated and involved process which entails careful drafting of requirements, forms, and supporting documentation. Failure to comply with the complicated laws and regulations to obtain an employment-based immigrant visa can cause unnecessary delays or even a denial.
Most persons coming to the United States as Employment Based Preference #2 or #3 aliens must obtain an alien labor certification, more commonly referred to as “PERM”. The purpose of the labor certification is to show that there are not sufficient United States workers able, willing, qualified, and available at the time of application at the place where the alien is to perform such skilled or unskilled labor, and the employment of such alien will not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of workers in the United States similarly employed. The process of obtaining PERM is very complicated and the utmost care must be taken in preparing such application.
