The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) is announcing a new initiative
to make available to the general public appropriately redacted copies of H-1B,
H-1B1, E-3, H-2A, H-2B and permanent labor certification documents through its
iCERT Visa Portal System. This new online tool, formally called the iCERT Labor
Certification Registry (LCR), is a component of the Department of Labor's Open
Government initiative and provides an additional level of transparency for the
labor certification decisions issued by the ETA Office of Foreign Labor
Certification (OFLC). The iCERT LCR provides searchable access to copies of
labor certification documents and labor condition application documents as well
as the latest quarterly and annual case file datasets through a single location.
Public access to the iCERT LCR will be available at http://icert.doleta.gov
beginning July 1, 2013. |
