I. Background

    OFLC's National Office provides program leadership and policy 
guidance, and develops regulations and procedures to implement the 
responsibilities of the Secretary under the Department's foreign labor 
certification programs. 20 CFR 655.2(a), 656.3.
    OFLC's Atlanta National Processing Center (ANPC) primarily 
processes labor certification applications filed by, or on behalf of, 
employers seeking to permanently employ foreign workers in the U.S., as 
well as labor condition applications or labor attestations for the E-3, 
H-1B, and H-1B1 visa classifications. OFLC's expanded use of technology 
allows for the electronic filing of employer applications and 
facilitates the transmission and exchange of official notifications and 
supporting documents. As a result, OFLC strongly urges stakeholders to 
continue to, or begin to, register online for submitting applications 
and uploading all required or responsive documents directly into the 
PERM Online System (https://www.plc.doleta.gov/) or Foreign Labor 
Application Gateway (FLAG) System
