SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
OFLC's National Office provides program leadership and policy
guidance, and develops regulations and procedures to implement the
responsibilities of the Secretary under the Department's foreign labor
certification programs. 20 CFR 655.2(a), 656.3.
OFLC's Atlanta National Processing Center (ANPC) primarily
processes labor certification applications filed by, or on behalf of,
employers seeking to permanently employ foreign workers in the U.S., as
well as labor condition applications or labor attestations for the E-3,
H-1B, and H-1B1 visa classifications. OFLC's expanded use of technology
allows for the electronic filing of employer applications and
facilitates the transmission and exchange of official notifications and
supporting documents. As a result, OFLC strongly urges stakeholders to
continue to, or begin to, register online for submitting applications
and uploading all required or responsive documents directly into the
PERM Online System (<a href="https://www.plc.doleta.gov/">https://www.plc.doleta.gov/</a>) or Foreign Labor
Application Gateway (FLAG) System
[[Page 37767]]
(<a href="https://flag.dol.gov/">https://flag.dol.gov/</a>), as appropriate. All mail related to these
applications is currently submitted to the ANPC's physical mailing
address at: U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration, Office of Foreign Labor Certification, Atlanta National
Processing Center, Harris Tower, 233 Peachtree Street NE, Suite 410,
Atlanta, GA 30303.
This Notice informs the public about a change of address for ANPC.
As specified below, with the exception of mail associated with the
processing of applications requesting permanent labor certification
subject to supervised recruitment under 20 CFR 656.21, the address
change for ANPC is effective on August 25, 2021.
II. ANPC's New Address
Effective August 25, 2021, any mail, including U.S. Postal Service
and other courier mail or parcel delivery packages, etc., sent to ANPC
must be submitted to the following new mailing address: U.S. Department
of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Foreign
Labor Certification, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Room N-5311,

Supervised Recruitment under 20 CFR 656.21, which must continue to be
submitted to: U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration, Office of Foreign Labor Certification, Atlanta National
Processing Center, Attn: Supervised Recruitment, P.O. Box 56625,
Atlanta, GA 30343.
Employers are reminded to adhere to regulatory requirements at 20
CFR 656.10(d), including providing ANPC's correct new mailing address,
specified above, on the Notice of Filing (NOF) that must be posted when
employers file a Form ETA-9089, Application for Permanent Employment
Certification. If the required 10-day posting period for a NOF
commences after September 5, 2021, employers must include the new
mailing address contained in this notice. 20 CFR 656.10(d)(3)(iii).
The correct new mailing address above must be used as of August 25,
2021. Any U.S. Postal Service mail addressed to the prior ANPC mailing
address will be forwarded by the U.S. Postal Service, but OFLC will not
consider such forwarded mail timely if the mail is postmarked after
September 15, 2021. Courier services and other courier mail or parcel
