As of July 3, employers who file an H-2B application for temporary labor certification in FLAG will only receive a temporary labor certification electronically. </span></p><p><span>If your application for a temporary labor certification was processed in FLAG, you must include a printed copy of the electronic one-page “final determination” of your H-2B temporary labor certification approval when you submit your <a href=”https://www.uscis.gov/i-129″>Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker</a>. We will consider a printed copy of the final determination as your original and approved temporary labor certification.</span></p><p>You must also ensure that the DOL Case Number identified on the final determination is the same as the ETA Case Number you provide in Part 5, Item 2 of your Form I-129.&nbsp;</p></div></div></div>
