Checking the status of a permanent residency (PERM) application is a crucial step for foreign workers and employers in the United States. A PERM application is a labor certification process that allows employers to hire foreign workers for permanent positions.
To check the status of a PERM application, the employer or the foreign worker can use the PERM case status tool provided by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). The tool requires the applicant to enter the application’s case number and other relevant information. Once the information is entered, the tool will display the current status of the application, including any updates or processing delays.
