Hi Peter - thanks for another of these.
What travel restrictions are applied to applicants/spouses going through the PERM labor cert green card process? I am on an L1-B (wife is L2) and we are currently at the step before the I-485 submission and travel lots to see family
Not a lawyer. PERM is a DOL process. Travel is governed by visas (or parole in some cases). The two are unrelated.
I certainly travelled during the PERM phase, and my lawyer didn’t even suggest I think about it. I did not travel after submitting the application while waiting for the EAD.
