About
PermWatch is a free PERM processing time tracker and estimator for US green card applicants and their employers. Enter your PERM filing date and PermWatch projects your likely decision month by inferring the filing month DOL is currently deciding from its published average processing times, then projecting that front forward at its pace over the last six months. As of October 31, 2026, PERM cases decided in the last 30 days took 300 days on average. The site also tracks the prevailing wage (PWD) queue and Visa Bulletin priority dates, recalculating every saved case every Monday. All charts and the estimator are free and a free account saves one case; Pro ($49/year or $79 one-time until green card) tracks up to three cases and alerts you by email and Telegram when an estimate moves a week. Estimates are statistical, backtested on 456 past points (half within 39 days, 80% within 78), not a DOL commitment and not legal advice.
