New iCERT System Provides One-Stop Visa Services for Employers

The Office of Foreign Labor Certification (OFLC) has announced the creation of a new, one-stop visa portal system. The iCERT System will give employers ease of access to employment-based visa application services and immigration news and information from OFLC.

As of April 15, 2009, employers and their authorized representatives will be able to register with the iCERT System and create a account to file Form 9035E, the Labor Condition Application (LCA), used with H-1B, H-1B1 and E-3 visa petitions.

Additionally, OFLC has created a help desk unit at the Chicago National Processing Center to serve as a resource for employers submitting LCAs with the government.
