Current PERM Processing Dates/Times (July 31, 2009)

September 12th, 2009 | Category: News, PERM

The Department of Labor has provided an update on the current PERM processing dates as of July 31, 2009.  They are as follows:

  • Regular processing: November 2008.  Unfortunately, there is no movement in comparison to the April 30, 2009 report which also reported November 2008, resulting a net additional delay of three (3) months for regular PERM applications.
  • Audited applications: October 2007.  This is movement forward of only one (1) month in comparison to April 30, 2009, resulting a net additional delay of two (2) months for audited PERM applications.
  • Appealed applications: July 2007.  This is movement forward of only one (1) month in comparison to April 30, 2009, resulting a net additional delay of two (2) months for audited PERM applications.

Based on these numbers, we can conclude that unfortunately the May-July 2009 period does not bring any improvement in the PERM processing times.   In fact, based on the July 31, 2009 numbers, regular PERM applications are expected to take approximately 9 months.
