RIR

According to the Labor Department:

The BECs will process the requests for RIR conversion on a first-come, first-serve basis. Response times to requests will vary depending on the volume of responses. Employers will not receive a confirmation that the request was received.

BECs will review the documentation provided and determine whether the documentation provided is sufficient.

According to the Labor Department:

Send the required information listed above by mail to the appropriate BEC based on where the case was filed. The information should be addressed:

The supporting documentation required for conversion to RIR processing is the same as that required for an application initially filed under the RIR process, with the addition of a written request for conversion. Employers or their attorneys should ensure the request includes:

1. A written request for conversion;
2. Documentation demonstrating that a pattern of recruitment has been established within the six months preceding the date the conversion request is received by the BEC, and that any U.S. workers were rejected solely for lawful, job-related reasons. Documentation must provide a description of the recruitment process used and the results of the recruitment process;
3. Contact information regarding the application including an e-mail address where a reply to the RIR conversion request can be sent.
