能用去年9月底時得到的prevailing salary麽？謝謝指教！

Question: 我去年9月底時為了PERM申請從州勞工部得到過一個prevailing salary。今年2-3月間準備辦LCA為4月1號的H1簽證申請做準備。那時還能用去年9月底時得到的prevailing salary麽？謝謝指教！

Answer: A prevailing wage determination has a limited validity period as specified by the State Workforce Agency (SWA), which may range from no less than 90 days to no more than one year from the determination date.

To use a SWA prevailing wage determination, the employer must file its application or begin the recruitment required within the validity period specified by the SWA.

You may need to check your prevailing wage approval from the State Workforce Agency to see if there is a expiration date. If there is no such date and it is more than 90 days, you may want to get a new prevailing wage determination from SWA. (also see http://www.greencardapply.com/perm/perm_whatis.htm)
