New mailing address for H-2A forms

The Office of Foreign Labor Certification, which develops federal regulations and procedures concerning foreign workers seeking admission to the United States, has announced an address change for its National Processing Center (NPC) in Chicago, effective Aug. 2.

The Chicago NPC, responsible for adjudicating all employer applications for temporary labor certification under the H-2A and other programs, has a new mailing address: U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Foreign Labor Certification, Chicago National Processing Center, 11 West Quincy Court, Chicago, IL 60604-2105.

To reach the office by phone, call 312-886-8000; fax 312-353-8830.

The following address is to be used for all invoices/fees submitted in connection with the H-2A program: U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Foreign Labor Certification, Chicago National Processing Center, P.O. Box A3804, Chicago, IL 60690-A3804.

For three weeks after Aug. 2, the Chicago NPC will receive via courier all written correspondence submitted to its former address. This is to ensure a smooth transition and allow all interested parties to commence using the new address. On Aug. 23, the courier will cease to operate and all submissions to the former address of the Chicago NPC will be returned to the sender, according to the Federal Register.
