Every case, by where it stands

Your company's page counts the cases waiting at the Labor Department by DOL's own status, and lists the newest with each one's job title, filing date and status.

  • Waiting cases counted by status: analyst review, a request for information, on hold, under appeal
  • Every case number opens that case's own page
  • How long DOL has taken on its decided cases, beside every other sponsor

Questions

How can an employer check the status of its PERM cases?
Search your company's name on this page. Its page lists its PERM cases as the Department of Labor holds them, counted by status, and each case number opens that case's own status page. DOL's case-status service is public, so no login is needed.
Can HR track a PERM case without the attorney?
Yes. A case's status at DOL is public record, read by its case number. The attorney files the case and receives DOL's notices, and this shows you the same status without asking for an update.
Will I hear the day a case is certified?
Yes, if you follow your company with Every case too ticked. PERM Tracker reads every waiting case's status from DOL 4 times each weekday, and sends one email on a day any of your company's cases changed, in the morning or the early evening, Eastern time. To hear within minutes about particular cases, paste their numbers into the list box on the alerts page: one email confirms them all.
What happens after DOL certifies a PERM case?
The employer files Form I-140 with USCIS, with the certification, and has 180 calendar days from the date DOL granted it. A certification that isn't filed in that time expires, and the PERM stage starts again.
What does the email show?
Each change in a sentence that says who acted, such as DOL certified 2 of its cases. Under it is each case by number, with the job title and filing month DOL holds for it. Each number links to that case's page.
Does it show which employee a case is for?
No. DOL publishes the employer, the job title, the dates and the status, never the worker's name, and PERM Tracker adds none. You match a case to a person by its case number, or by its job title and filing date.
What does it cost?
It's free, and following a company needs no account: an email address is all it asks for.
How do I stop the emails?
Every email has a one-click link that stops it, and a link to a page listing everything your address follows.

Every status here is the Department of Labor's own, read from its case-status service and its quarterly disclosure files. How the numbers are made.
