Current PERM Processing Dates/Times (as of April 30, 2010)
The Department of Labor (“DOL”) has provided an update on the current PERM processing dates as of April 30, 2010. They are as follows:
- Regular processing: July 2009. DOL is processing PERM applications with priority dates in July of 2009. This suggests that there is very slight forward movement for regular PERM processing. Accordingly, regular PERM processing times should be approximately nine (9) months.
- Audited applications: April 2008. The processing time has not changed over the past few months. Accordingly, audited PERM processing times remain at approximately 24 months.
- Appealed applications: November 2007. There is no movement this month in this category over the past few months. Accordingly, PERM appeals take approximately 28 months.
