I read this note from Immigration-law.com. Please read this para
However, inasmuch as such substitution rule is removed from their policy and practice, there is no reason why the DOL should keep the current PERM policy and rule that require or even consider withdrawal of pending pre-PERM labor certification application if the employer refiles the PERM application on behalf of the identical alien beneficiary, idential occupations, and identical location. It is thus urged that the DOL also initiates a rule-making process to revise the current PERM regulation and to permit the employers to refile an application under the PERM system without withdrawal of the pending labor certificdation application and without losing the priority date. Indeed, such revised policy will swift a large number of backlog cases from the Backlog Processing Centers to the PERM National Processing Centers, achieving the goal of removal of backlog cases in a short period of time and utilitization the valuable resources in the National Processing Centers more efficiently and effectively. Some questions whether valuable "adjudication" resources are currently being wasted at the National Processing Centers because of practical abandonment of PERM filings by the employers.
To any sane person that really make sense. Do you think DOL will heed? I doubt...
Unfortunately, I think there are really some...............................(fill in as us wish
)
Pray & hope....is the only answer I can think off!
