When is the deadline for submitting the Recruitment Report and the Application for Temporary Employmen Certification (ETA 9142) along with Appendix B.1?
The regulations do not specify the last date an employer can submit an application. The regulations do, however, specify the earliest an employer can begin recruitment (120 days prior to first date of need) and the earliest that a Recruitment Report can be created (2 calendar days after the last date on which the job order was posted and 5 calendar days after the last newspaper advertisement was published). The Recruitment Report is necessary to filing a completed Application for Temporary Employment Certification; therefore, an application may not be filed until at least that time that a recruitment report can 5 be completed. The Recruitment Report and Application for Temporary Employment Certification should not be submitted to the Chicago National Processing Center until all qualified U.S. worker applicants have been considered.
