At Ozek Law Firm, we understand the complexities of employment-based immigration and are committed to helping employers and foreign workers navigate the legal processes with confidence and success. Our skilled immigration attorneys offer comprehensive services related to the PERM labor certification process and employment-based immigrant visa categories, including EB-2 and EB-3.

PERM Labor Certification Process

The Program Electronic Review Management (PERM) process is a key step for U.S. employers seeking to sponsor foreign workers for permanent residency. This labor certification process ensures that there are no qualified U.S. workers available for a given position, making it essential for employers to follow the detailed steps required by the Department of Labor.

Our attorneys guide clients through each phase of the PERM process, ensuring compliance with all labor certification requirements, including:

• Job Description and Recruitment: We help employers define the job requirements and conduct the necessary recruitment to demonstrate that no U.S. workers are available for the position.
• Application Filing: Our team ensures the timely and accurate filing of the PERM application with the Department of Labor, addressing any challenges that arise during the process.
• Audit Representation: If the application is audited, we provide expert representation to resolve issues and ensure the successful approval of your case.

EB-2 (Employment-Based, Second Preference)

The EB-2 visa is a popular choice for foreign nationals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability in fields such as science, arts, education, or business. The EB-2 category offers a path to permanent residency based on employment, and we assist both employers and employees throughout the process.

Our services for EB-2 petitions include:

• Advanced Degree Professionals: We assist in preparing petitions for professionals holding advanced degrees, ensuring that all criteria are met and documented.
• Exceptional Ability: For individuals who can demonstrate exceptional ability in their field, we provide expert support in gathering evidence to prove their qualifications.
• National Interest Waiver (NIW): If the applicant can demonstrate their work benefits the U.S. on a national scale, we assist with the National Interest Waiver (NIW) process, which eliminates the need for employer sponsorship.

EB-3 (Employment-Based, Third Preference)

The EB-3 visa category is designed for skilled workers, professionals, and other workers who meet specific educational or work experience requirements. It is an excellent option for individuals seeking to obtain permanent residency through employment-based immigration.

Our team helps clients navigate the EB-3 process, which includes:

• Skilled Workers: We assist employers in filing EB-3 petitions for workers with at least two years of training or experience in a specific occupation.
• Professionals: For individuals with a U.S. bachelor’s degree or its foreign equivalent, we guide them through the EB-3 process to secure permanent residency.
• Other Workers: For positions that require less than two years of training or experience, we help employers file for other workers under the EB-3 category.
