Labor Substitution Regulation Delayed
©MurthyDotCom
As many of our readers know, there is an effort by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) to eliminate the process known as labor substitution. Labor substitution, in sum, is the ability of the company sponsoring a green card case to request that a foreign national, other than the individual named as the labor certification beneficiary, be "substituted" into the labor certification as the beneficiary. This matter was covered in our August 26, 2005 MurthyBulletin article Proposal to End LC Substitution and Require Prompt I-140 Filing, available on MurthyDotCom.

At least for the time being, it appears that this regulation is being pushed back. The possibility of the elimination of this process apparently generated significant concern in the business community. Our above-referenced article raises some of the many concerns and objections to the elimination of the process.

While this matter has not been entirely put to rest, it at least appears to be derailed for the time being. Although the elimination of the LC Substitution has seemingly been shelved for now by the DOL, those who are beneficiaries of labor substitution cases or are considering using this procedure, should exercise care and caution, taking note of the concerns voiced in our September 9, 2005 article, Beware of Fraudulent LC Substitution Cases, also available on MurthyDotCom.
