PERM Regulations Cleared by OMB |
| 18-DEC-2004 |
On December 10, 2004, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) completed its review of the U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL) long-awaited new labor certification regulations, known as Program Review Electronic Management, (PERM).
Once the PERM program goes into effect, all labor certification applications must be filed under the PERM rules. Cases filed under the existing regulations (i.e., RIR and non-RIR applications) will be processed to completion, but no new cases will be accepted under the existing regulations after PERM becomes effective.
The PERM procedures cannot go into effect until the final regulation is published in the Federal Register. The same DOL memo advised that PERM would take effect 60 days after publication. This would mean that PERM would go into effect no later than March 1, 2005, and possibly as early as late February.
