Employment-Based Labor Certifications in Dallas

Put Years of Experience in Your Corner

A PERM labor certification is required by all employers who are seeking to bring foreign nationals into the U.S. for the purpose of employment. This is the first step in the employment-based visa process. The employer must submit an application to the Department of Labor demonstrating the need for the foreign worker's skill and how that skill cannot be replicated by a U.S. worker. The purpose of this process is to protect U.S. workers from being adversely affected by the introduction of foreign labor.

When an employer wants to sponsor a foreign worker for a green card, the employer must undergo a three-step process:

  • Obtain Alien Labor Certification through the PERM process
  • I-140 Immigration Petition for Alien Worker
  • I-485 Application for Adjustment of Status (Green Card)

PERM Labor Certification Requirements-

The PERM Labor Certification process can begin when all requirements are fulfilled. Both the employer and prospective employee have certain obligations that must be fulfilled.

Requirements for PERM labor certification:

  • The employee must be hired full-time by the U.S. employer
  • The position must be a bona fide job offer that is also available to U.S. workers
  • The job qualifications must be standard and not tailored specifically for the foreign worker.
  • The wage for the position must meet prevailing wage requirements (equal or greater than the average wage for those similarly employed)
  • The employer must show that there are no qualified U.S. workers available for the job and that hiring the foreign worker will not negatively impact U.S. workers

    We are a small business with 20 employees and reached out to Akula & Associates for immigration help, Kavitha Akula, Toki Olowo and their staff have been extremely helpful. They always give very clear instructions for our cases, and yes, we have multiple cases with them and several of which are approved.

    "They handle the legal process in a professional way."
    Thank you for all your help and patience with my H1B. You made a difficult time a little easier and less stressful, which I greatly appreciate. Ambreen was very helpful in our immigration process and her efforts and work helped us to achieve our most important goal, which is a future for ourselves and our child in the United States. It was a great experience to work with such a professional. We always felt that she was reachable either by e-mail or by phone. We were very impressed with her way of doing business and how she tracked and controlled every issue such that our immigration process went well. She was very responsive, constantly reviewing and checking for the documents needed to carry on the process. They handle the legal process in a professional way, and the treatment is friendly with the clients, which makes it easier and more enjoyable. They always follow up with all the steps throughout the process and kept me informed of the outcomes and further documents needed for the next steps, which made me stay one step ahead of the process to help ensure the desired outcome. Really glad to have her and Akula associates as my attorney in our successful visa applications. We look forward to working with her again for our future legal needs.
