(a)Submission requirements and certification delays. If in response to a NOD the employer chooses to submit a modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification or job order, the CO's Final Determination will be postponed by 1 calendar day for each day that passes beyond the 5 business-day period allowed under § 655.141(b) to submit a modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification or job order, up to a maximum of 5 calendar days. The CO may issue one or more additional NODs before issuing a Final Determination. The Application for Temporary Employment Certification will be deemed abandoned if the employer does not submit a modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification or job order within 12 calendar days after the NOD was issued.
(b)Provisions for denial of modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification. If the modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification or job order does not cure the deficiencies cited in the NOD(s) or otherwise fails to satisfy the criteria required for certification, the CO will deny the Application for Temporary Employment Certification in accordance with the labor certification determination provisions in § 655.164.
(c)Appeal from denial of modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification. The procedures for appealing a denial of a modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification are the same as for a non-modified Application for Temporary Employment Certification as long as the employer timely requests an expedited administrative review or de novo hearing before an ALJ by following the procedures set forth in § 655.171.
