How do I file an application for a temporary labor certification in the H-2A program?
Under the 2010 Final Rule, as under the 2008 rule, the Department requires employers participating in the H-2A program to file hard copy applications. The employer should send the completed and signed Application, the SWA-approved job order and required supporting documentation (as discussed in more detail below) by U.S. mail or courier directly to the Chicago NPC at the following address: U.S. Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration Chicago National Processing Center 536 South Clark Street, Chicago, IL 60605 -1509 In the future, the Department may develop an electronic filing system for the H-2A program in which case it will notify the interested public through a notice in the Federal Register.
