Question 3

How long does it take to get a green card through Baptist Health South Florida?

Accepted Answer

The total process from start to green card typically takes 1–5+ years.

What triggers a PERM audit?

Accepted Answer

The DOL may audit a PERM application if certain risk factors are present: layoffs within 6 months of filing, the foreign worker having an ownership interest in the company, job requirements that exceed the norm for the occupation, foreign language requirements, or combination occupations. An audit requires additional documentation but does not mean the case will be denied.
