Facebook Perm issue

Hi, I recently got a call from recruiter for a Facebook position. If everything goes good, I will like to pursue the offer. But before I put myself into interview process, can someone let me know what is the PERM issue going on with Facebook.

What I heard is that all PERM filed since last summer were not approved and pending the lawsuit filed by DOL. Did you ask the recruiter about this?

I’m considering leaving since my perm case is not approved

How long you have been waiting?

Was it actually finished and rejected? What was the reason and how long did it take?

No approvals coming in as there's a PERM lawsuit by the DOJ, expecting it to get dragged for a few months. If it doesn't resolve by end of year, a lot of us are considering leaving

Internally we don’t have any more information than leadership saying they’re optimistic about it being resolved by end of q4/in q4

New joinees too

they rescinded verbal offer even for people with I-140 approval. Saying can only extend offer if 485 is portable. Seen a few data points like myself. Really sucks. Don't waste your time.

I have my I40 approved with my current employer and H1 visa expires on 09/2023.. I got an offer from FB, is it safe to switch ?

Facebook nahaiv121 Jul 23, 2021

You can renew H1B with approved I140.

Accenture PVqz33 Jul 23, 2021

Are you sure!? Can my FB visa extended with prior company’s i140 ?

Facebook ruMA76 Jul 25, 2021

Dont join FB now if you dont have GC. Internally to employees FB leadership, immigration have not been transparent about this. Many immigrant employees already left

Facebook yDJR83 Jul 26, 2021

I am leaving fb as well. Don’t join if you need perm
