USCIS Business Days Definition in Labor Certification NoticeAccording to American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), USCIS has been defining ten business days to exclude Saturdays, Sundays and any day designated as a Federal Government holiday, irrespective of whether the employer is open for business on those days. Until and unless USCIS adopts a more reasonable interpretation, applicants should file Schedule A labor certification cases with a posting notice in compliance with this definition. Ten business days is a time requirement for posting notice in labor certification. For example, in case of professional positions which require a bachelor's degree, in addition to the mandatory SWA job order (30 days), posting notice (ten business days), and two Sundays ads in a newspaper, the PERM regulations also require the employer to conduct three additional recruitment steps, including: job fair, on-campus recruiting, employer website, local or ethnic newspapers, or radio or TV ads, etc.
