Are there any circumstances under which mailing in a labor certification application would prove more successful than electronically submitting an application on-line?
No, mailing in an application will not prove more successful, as the mailed-in application, upon receipt at the National Processing Center, is initially merely date stamped. Until the application is data entered into the electronic system by a data entry person (using the exact information shown on the ETA Form 9089), processing will not begin on the application. Once entered into the system, the mailed-in application receives the exact same automated analysis and manual scrutiny as an application submitted electronically. If there are two identical applications, one submitted electronically and one mailed-in, there will be no difference in how they are processed. The only difference may be in processing time; a mailed-in application will take longer, as not only mailing but also the data entry time will be involved. Remember: the on-line system will identify mistakes (e.g. entering four digits for a zip code instead of five digits) before allowing the application to be submitted, but
