step 2 tarvatha nethina thadi **** esukui waiting cheyale idhi important step gc process lo  :3D_Smiles_38:

Anthega.. Step -2 dhaaka Easy ne ..:D

 

Stage 1 : PERM Labor Certification

PERM/Labor Certification stage is the first step in the green card process.

PERM stands for Program for Electronic Review Management.

Why PERM?

During this step Employer have to prove that there are no qualified American Citizens for this positions and  foreign workers not taking jobs away from U.S. citizens.

Here is an interview of Typical PERM Process.

  • HR Manager notifies company’s Immigration Attorney about filing Green Card for specific employee.
  • Initial Meeting : Manager, employee, HR and Immigration Attorney
  • Job Description : Drafted, revised and finalized.
  • Prevailing Wage determination request submitted to U.S. DOL (Department of Labor)
  • Followed by Recruitment phase
  • If no qualified US workers identified, file application with DOL. Date when the application is filed with DOL is your Priority Date.
  • DOL processes and approves PERM Labor Certification

Processing Timeline :

  • Initial Conversation for Job Description  : 1  to 2 Months
  • Prevailing Wage Determination : About 2 months
  • Recruitment and Filing : 3 to 6 months
  • PERM Labor Approval : 2 to 8 months. ( as of August 2014, PERM approval time is 6 months)
Stage 2: I-140 Immigration Application

Next step in the Green Card process is I-140 Immigration Application. After Labor Certification Application has been certified by DOL I-140 application can be filed.

Why I-140?

  • Verify employee meets job requirements specified on the PERM/Labor Certification Application
  • Verify the sponsoring employer can pay the offered wages to the employee.

After I-140 is approved, H-1B employee will be able to extend the H1B for 3 years period beyond initial 6 years.

Stage 3: I-485 Adjustment of Status

Form I-485 Application to Adjust Status, the actual green card application which will be filed after I-140 application is approved by USCIS and Green card visa number is available based on the employee’s country of birth, employment-based classification, and visa priority date.

You could be born in India and have Australian Citizenship. But, Visa number availability is based on country of birth.

Priority date is the date that the PERM/Labor Certification Application was filed with the DOL.

Long wait times are due to unavailability of Green Card Visa numbers.

There is certain number of Green card applications are made available per year per category per country.

Every month Department of State publishes the Visa Bulletin,  with available visa numbers based on priority dates.

While filing I-485 application, you could file for EAD and Travel Permit (Advanced Parole).

Green Card Processing Time
  • People wait for 4 to 6 years in this stage in EB2 ( for India)
  • Several more  years for EB3 ( India ).

If the priority date moves back from  after you file for I-485, then visa numbers will not be available.

You would have to wait till visa numbers available to get Green Card. That’s when folks apply for EAD.
