Share this:

On Monday, February 25, 2013, the Office of Foreign Labor Certification will implement the newest enhancement to the Labor Certification Application (LCA) module within its iCERT system. This new enhancement will allow employers and their authorized agents to reuse previously filed LCAs under the following visa programs: H-1B, H-1B1 and E3.

This new feature, according to the Department of Labor, will significantly reduce the administrative time and cost of preparation and submission of ETA Form 9035E, the Labor Certification Application for Nonimmigrant Workers.

More information about this new enhancement is available on a Department of Labor factsheet, available at http://www.foreignlaborcert.doleta.gov/pdf/icert_lca_module.pdf.
