Celebrating a Recent PERM Labor Certification Success!

We are thrilled to share a recent success story from our practice! We had the privilege of assisting an international company in securing a PERM labor certification for a Vice President position. This role requires a bachelor’s degree and ten years of progressive experience, along with expertise in working across different cultures. The candidate also needed in-depth knowledge of both Mexican and U.S. customs laws, import/export processes, and experience in the Maquiladora field.

In addition to these qualifications, the Vice President will be responsible for designing the company’s mission, values, and strategic goals, managing daily operations, and overseeing revenue generation. The role also requires monthly travel to Mexico to maintain close ties and ensure seamless operations.

The journey started with obtaining the Prevailing Wage Determination from the Department of Labor, which took about three months. Following that, the Department of Labor took sixteen months to certify the Application for Permanent Employment Certification. We then filed the Immigrant Petition with the USCIS with premium processing to have the approval within 15 business days. Once the priority date becomes current, we will proceed with adjusting the candidate’s status.

We are excited to celebrate this milestone and share that if you are looking to pursue a green card and have an employer willing to sponsor you, we would love to assist you on this journey. Feel free to schedule a consultation at calendly.com/irena-3 so we can explore the details and help you achieve your goals!
