Chicago Immigration Attorneys - Labor Certification PERM Lawyers

Our Chicago immigration lawyers can help you understand the PERM process to apply for a labor certification on behalf of a foreign worker. Our Chicago immigration law firm helps employers successfully file PERM applications in order to keep valuable foreign employees in the United States.

In order to sponsor a foreign national for a permanent residence an employer usually must apply to the Secretary of Labor for a labor certification that there are not enough domestic workers available in the United States to perform the work and that the noncitizen's immigration will not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of the U.S. workers.

The intending employer may not file an immigrant petition with USCIS unless the employer has obtained a labor certification, and includes the labor certification with the petition. The employer can obtain a labor certification as provided in regulations published by the U.S. Department of Labor using PERM (Program Electronic Review Management). PERM is basically an attestation and audit system under which employers seeking permanent labor certification conduct advertising and recruitment prior to filing the labor certification application. Before an employer can submit an application for a labor certification, the employer must comply with numerous requirements listed in the Department of Labor regulations.

If you are seeking to sponsor a foreign national through employment, we can help you navigate effectively through the maze of immigration and nationality laws. Call us at 773-516-4100 or contact us online for a consultation to discuss your immigration law issues or questions.

Someone rear-ended my car last spring and I was injured. Peter and Sofia Zneimer and they staff were professional and were always available by phone. I knew that the insurance of the other driver wasn't very good but they were still able to settle my case promptly and I was satisfied with the money I received. Overall, a very good trusted experience. Natig M.

I highly recommend the services of Zneimer and Zneimer. I often seek legal advice from them related to my immigration status and way forward.

I have dealt with Sofia Zneimer since 2009. She is a great lawyer and has helped me tremendously in navigating the process of green card. She is a great resource to have by your side. She is easy to reach. She responds very quickly, which was very important for me. If she can’t answer the question the same day, she does let you know that she is working on it. I would have no hesitation in recruiting her. Hemant S.
