PERM / DOL Case Status Lookup

About PERM, PWD, and LCA lookups

PERM is the permanent labor certification employers file with the U.S. Department of Labor before sponsoring an employment-based green card. This page checks the live status of any DOL FLAG case: PERM applications, prevailing wage determinations (PWD), and H-1B labor condition applications (LCA). Enter the full case number from your employer or attorney, for example G-100-12345-123456.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check my PERM case status?

Enter your DOL case number in the search box above. The status comes straight from the Department of Labor FLAG system, and no account is needed to look it up.

Where do I find my PERM case number?

Your employer or immigration attorney receives it when the case is filed. PERM numbers usually start with G-100, prevailing wage determinations with P-100, and LCAs with I-200.

What does "Certified" mean for a PERM case?

Certified means the Department of Labor approved the labor certification. The employer can then file Form I-140 with USCIS, the next step toward the green card.

Can I get alerts when my PERM status changes?

Yes. Look up your case and press "Track this case" to add it to My Cases. MyCasesHub rechecks it and notifies you when the status changes.

Where does the sponsor and statistics data come from?

Live case status comes from the DOL FLAG system. The sponsor rankings and outcome statistics on this page are computed from public Department of Labor PERM disclosure files.
