CIS within 180 calendar days of the date the Dept of
Labor granted the certification;
- An approved labor certification granted before July 16,
2007 expires if not filed in support of a I-140 with the CIS
within 180 days of July 16, 2007;
- Employer must bear all costs in connection with the
labor certification filing, including attorneys fees.
