PERM Filing Risk Factors
The DOL flags certain conditions on PERM applications that may trigger an audit, a request for additional documentation before a case can be certified. These are common in certain industries and don't indicate wrongdoing. Based on 92 PERM filings in the last year.
Unusual Job Requirements
91 of 92 filings
The job requirements exceed what's standard for the occupation. The DOL checks whether requirements are tailored to the foreign worker.
Foreign Language Required
1 of 92 filings
The position requires a non-English language. The DOL verifies this is a genuine business need, not a way to narrow the applicant pool.
