Once the PERM is filed, DOL will process pursuant to their stated processing times. At the moment, it is approximately five months, if the application is not audited.

Recruitment is based on regulation that lists it as no shorter than 60 days. I-140 processing also depends on USCIS processing times, however, can be premium processed.
