What's the PERM application policy at Amazon?

Got an offer, checking if they'll apply for Green Card anytime soon. Since my current company would apply in next few months. Organization is Amazon advertising

What does GC stand for?

IBM fBFv65 OP Mar 7, 2019

Sorry. Green card application

VMware okay! Mar 7, 2019

Did you ask the recruiter?

IBM fBFv65 OP Mar 7, 2019

Recruiter said depends on manager and team. That's why was hoping to get some insights

VMware okay! Mar 7, 2019

Mine told me I can submit a ticket on day 1 to kick off the process

You’re eligible to apply for PERM from day 1 as long as your L6 manager approves (they will most likely do)

Thanks. Looks like they do performance based.

Day one with l6 manager approval so really easy.

IBM fBFv65 OP Mar 7, 2019

Apparently my Hiring manager is saying performance based. So not right away.

He's lying, the policy is on inside.amazon.com

Not performance based. Apply immediately when you start.

Hmm the policy changed.. he might not know about the updates. It changed in mid year 2017. But your manager needs to be supportive of you applying for it. I applied when I started and got my GC a year later.
