From PERM to Green Card
Employment-based immigration allows foreign workers with specialized skills to obtain permanent residence in the United States. SSF Law Firm guides both employers and employees through the complex employment-based immigration process.
Most employment-based green card petitions require the employer to first obtain a PERM labor certification from the Department of Labor, demonstrating that there are no qualified U.S. workers available for the position. Our attorneys guide employers through the PERM process, including prevailing wage determinations, recruitment requirements, and audit responses.
After obtaining PERM certification (where required), the employer files an I-140 immigrant visa petition with USCIS. Our attorneys handle EB-1 petitions for priority workers, EB-2 petitions for professionals with advanced degrees, EB-3 petitions for skilled workers, and National Interest Waivers (NIW) for individuals whose work benefits the United States.
