Question 2

Yes. SCAD has filed 36 PERM labor certification applications for employer-sponsored green cards, with a 100% approval rate. The median processing time from filing to decision has been 143 days. See the Green Cards tab for full PERM filing details.

Question 3

SCAD has filed 213 LCAs covering 213 H-1B positions, and 36 PERM green card applications. The filing history chart above shows how SCAD's sponsorship volume has changed over time. See the H-1B and Green Cards tabs for detailed breakdowns.

Question 4

How long does it take to get a green card through SCAD?

Accepted Answer

The employer-sponsored green card process has three main stages: PERM labor certification with the DOL (6–18 months), I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS (4–6 months, or 15 days with premium processing), and adjustment of status or consular processing. SCAD's median PERM processing time from filing to decision has been 143 days. For applicants from countries with visa backlogs like India and China, the wait for a visa number after I-140 approval can add years. The total timeline from start to green card is typically 1–5+ years.

Question 5

What is SCAD's green card commitment?

Accepted Answer

SCAD's green card commitment rate is 30.8%, calculated by dividing the number of PERM green card filings by the number of new H-1B employment and transfer positions. A higher percentage indicates the company is more likely to sponsor employees for permanent residency rather than keeping them on temporary work visas.
