PERM deadline calculator

It opens 30 days after the last recruitment step, which is the quiet period, and closes 180 days after the first recruitment step. Filing inside the quiet period is an automatic denial, and recruitment older than 180 days can’t support a filing at all.

Under 20 CFR 656.40(c) it depends on when it was issued. A determination issued between 2 April and 30 June is valid for 90 days. One issued between 1 July and 31 December runs to 30 June of the following year, and one issued between 1 January and 1 April runs to 30 June of the same year.

Yes, if recruitment began while the determination was valid. 20 CFR 656.40(c) asks employers to file or begin recruitment within the validity period, and the Board of Alien Labor Certification Appeals read it that way in Karl Storz Endoscopy-America (2011). The window then closes 180 days after the first recruitment step. Recruitment begun before the determination was issued means filing by the expiration.

Ten consecutive business days, and it has to be completed inside the recruitment window rather than after it.

Enter the dates and choose Add to calendar. It saves one calendar file with every deadline as an all-day event and a reminder a week before each, which Outlook, Google Calendar and Apple Calendar all open.

Yes. Copy all dates puts every deadline on the clipboard as plain text, one line each with its name, ready to paste into a spreadsheet, a case system such as Salesforce, or an email. Any warning about the dates entered is copied with them.

Save the dates as a case in PERM Tracker, free for attorneys and their teams, and it reminds you 30, 14, 7, 3 and 1 day before each deadline, by email and in the app. The calendar file carries its own reminder a week before each date.

Only partly. The dates here are the ones every case has. A professional role needs three additional recruitment steps beyond these, chosen from DOL's list, and each has its own timing rules.
