Frequently Asked Questions

What is PERM?

PERM (Program Electronic Review Management) is a key step in the U.S. EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program. It is the labor certification process through which a U.S. employer obtains approval from the U.S. Department of Labor to hire a qualified foreign worker for a permanent position. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we guide applicants through this important stage by providing professional support, clear communication, and assistance throughout the EB-3 process.

The EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program allows qualified foreign workers to obtain permanent employment with approved U.S. employers experiencing labor shortages. When employers are unable to find enough eligible U.S. workers for full-time positions, they may sponsor qualified international candidates through the EB-3 program. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we guide applicants through every stage of the process—from eligibility assessment and document preparation to employer coordination and application support—helping them pursue legal employment opportunities and permanent residency in the United States.

The EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program supports U.S. employers in industries experiencing ongoing labor shortages. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we help qualified applicants connect with opportunities in sectors such as fast food and restaurants, hotels and hospitality, housekeeping, food processing, manufacturing, warehouses, packaging, cleaning services, caregiving, and other entry-level positions. Job availability depends on employer demand and approved recruitment opportunities under the EB-3 program.

The final hiring decision is made entirely by the U.S. employer. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we help qualified applicants prepare their profiles, complete the required documentation, and coordinate interviews when requested. Employers review candidate profiles and conduct interviews before selecting the individuals they wish to hire through the EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program.

At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we carefully assess each applicant’s qualifications, communication skills, work readiness, and overall suitability before introducing them to U.S. employers. Candidates are matched according to the employer’s job requirements, ensuring the best possible fit for each position. Employers may also review candidate profiles and conduct interviews before making their final hiring decision. This structured process helps connect qualified applicants with genuine EB-3 employment opportunities while meeting employer expectations.

What Happens After the PERM Application Is Submitted?

After the PERM Labor Certification application is submitted, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) reviews the case to ensure it meets all program requirements. The application may either be approved or selected for an additional review, known as an audit, where supporting documents are requested to verify compliance. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we keep applicants informed throughout this stage and provide professional guidance to help ensure the process moves forward smoothly.

Once the PERM Labor Certification is approved, the next step is filing the Form I-140 Immigrant Petition with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). After USCIS approval, the applicant’s case moves forward for visa processing, where the U.S. Department of State conducts identity, security, and background checks. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we guide applicants through every stage, providing clear communication, document support, and professional assistance until the process is complete.

The EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program is a long-term immigration process, and timelines vary depending on U.S. government processing, employer requirements, and individual case circumstances. In many cases, the process may take 40–50 months or longer. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we keep applicants informed throughout every stage, provide regular updates, and offer professional guidance to help ensure the process moves forward as smoothly as possible. Patience and careful planning are essential while waiting for final visa approval and travel authorization.

The EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program involves several stages managed by U.S. government agencies, including the Department of Labor (DOL), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and the Department of State (DOS). These steps include Prevailing Wage Determination (PWD), PERM Labor Certification, and immigration petition processing.

At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we work closely with trusted recruitment partners and assist applicants throughout the entire process. From document preparation and eligibility assessment to employer coordination and application support, our experienced team provides clear guidance and regular updates, making the EB-3 journey as smooth, organized, and transparent as possible for both applicants and employers.

Under the EB-3 Unskilled Visa Program, U.S. employers must offer wages that comply with U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) regulations. The salary must meet or exceed the prevailing wage for the position or the employer’s standard wage for similar roles, whichever is higher. At Immigrity Consultants, based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we help applicants understand job offers, wage requirements, and the overall EB-3 process with clear, transparent guidance.
