This was finished prior to the sponsored foreignworkers date of hire by the employerapplicant see K.a.6, this form, reflecting 04012019 for a start date, i.e., after the individual had finished the qualifying program. In addition, the workers Doctorallevel chemistrychemical biology program again, completed prior to her date of hire by the employerapplicant provided the proficiencies the position requires. Details on this have been included at K.b.9, this form. Note, too, that the person intends to secure letters of verification, confirming the required proficiencies indeed were acquired in the course of pursuing her Doctor of Philosophy Degree and explaining precisely how the same were obtained. The details given at K.b.9, this form, provide what will be letter text.br br NOTE ON PREVAILING WAGE DETERMINATION VALIDITY In merely beginning recruitment during the prevailing wage determination validity period, we comply with 20 C.F.R. 656.40c. This, by itself, is enough to satisfy specified regulation. Prior expiration, then, of the prevailing wage determination, as of the time of filing of this form, is immaterial. See 20 C.F.R. 656.40c, indicating that quot;to use a prevailing wage rate provided by the National Processing Center or NPC, employers must file their applications OR BEGIN the recruitment period required by 656.17e...within the validity period specified by the NPC.quot; 20 C.F.R. 656.40c. Emphasis added. Here, it should be noted, specifically, that one 656.17e recruitment activity the jobsearch site ad was begun while the prevailing wage determination was valid with any ONE starting before its expiration sufficient to quot;begin the recruitment period requiredquot; under 20 C.F.R. 656.40c and comply with the regulation. Id. Further, there importantly were not any 656.17e recruitment activities in motion prior to prevailing wage determination receipt or issuance, highlighting still more 20 C.F.R. 656.40c consonance as interpreted by case law.br Determination used here, thus, remains valid, its prior expiration notwithstanding.br br FAILURE TO STATE quot;KELLOGG LANGUAGEquot; NOT A VALID BASIS TO DENY ACCORDING TO BOARD OF ALIEN LABOR CERTIFICATION APPEALS Cite Federal Insurance Co., 2008PER0037.
