01/29/2007: Special Alert: DOL Submitted "Final" Regulation of Substitution Elimination Rule to OMB on 01/26/2007

* Since this is a final rule, upon approval by OMB, the elimination of substitution and 45-day validity of certified labor certification will be triggered. Take this message as a very special alert! This rule will not only eliminate substitutition on the OMB approval and release in the Federal Register but also kill the certified labor certification unless it is used within 45 days from the date of certification! Please stay tuned to this web site reporting.
* The planned implementation day appears to be April 2007. But it can be earlier!

Indeed a good policy that DOL might implement, what else is better than this? Now the old filers can have some relief, who are on the line for such a long painful time, and now its a bust for those who wanted to suck on others. Hats off DOL, I wish it could happen few years back, so none of the things get violated.

But again, very bad for those who are looking for pre-approved labor - those who are running out of their H1B status.

Well, it won't be bad for H1-B's either... Anyone who is running out of H-1B limit can always use PERM and expedited I-140 approval to stay in status...
