Priority Dates for Employment-Based Petitions

Official abstract

This interim rule amends the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) regulations by eliminating the requirement that an application for labor certification filed with a state employment office before October 1, 1991, must be filed with the Service in connection with a petition filed under section 203(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act) before October 1, 1993, in order to maintain a pre-October 1, 1991, priority date. This rule implements section 218 of the Immigration and Nationality Technical Corrections Act of 1994 (INTCA), which amended section 161(c)(1) of the Immigration Act of 1990 (IMMACT). This rule is necessary to implement a statutory change.
