04/19/2004: PERM Labor Certification Program: Probable Launch Date of 10/01/2004?
The final rule of the PERM was received by the OMB for its review on February 23, 2004. Since this review is not considered economically significant, it is likely that the review may be completed in 90 days, most likely by May 26, 2004. Since the DOL plans launch the program 120 days after the release of the regulation, the final rule may be published on June 1, 2004 with the start date of October 1, 2004. The proposed FY 2005 budget already earmarked for the PERM. Once it is published, the final rule will specify the required recruitment sources, types of recruitment, and the standards of recruitment. It is thus likely that the employers may be able to launch the recruitment campaign as soon as the final rule is published. Please stay tuned to this web site for the development of this news.
