The Department of Labor is now allowing
employers to convert Traditional Recruitment (TR)
labor certification applications pending at the
Backlog Elimination Centers to Reduction in
Recruitment (RIR) applications in order to speed
up the processing. The written conversion
request must be accompanied by documentation
demonstrating a pattern of recruitment by the
employer within six months preceding the date of
the conversion request.

A DOL Administrative Review Board case
recently held that the employer had not effected
a bona fide termination of its H1b employee
because there was no evidence that the company
had notified the CIS it had terminated the H1b
employee and provided the employee with
payment for transportation home. The employer
was ordered to pay the prevailing wage to the
employee until the expiration of her authorized
H1b period of stay.
