How soon can an employer submit a PERM from the date of first recruitment?
Technically, an employer may submit a PERM application in 60 days from the date of first recruitment. As explained above, the employer may complete recruitment activities in 30 days. There is a 30-day waiting period from the date of completion of the mandatory posting and two optional postings prior to the submission of the PERM. This period is required so that the employer may screen and interview the potential candidates.
