I’d like to cancel a labor certification application that got audited.
My PERM labor certification application got audited after filing — I’d like to know how much longer this will take.
I’m also going through a separate employment-based process with another sponsor, so I’d like to cancel the audited labor certification process. How can I go about canceling it?
Once a case is audited, that particular labor certification filing cannot simply be withdrawn. This is to prevent employers from simply withdrawing a flagged filing and then proceeding with another case while the original issue remains unresolved. So once audited, you have no choice but to wait for the outcome. The typical delay after being flagged for audit is around 6–12 months.
