Department of Labor Precertification ("Schedule A Occupations")
Henry J. Chang

It has been previously determined that there are not sufficient United States workers who are able, willing, qualified, and available for the certain categories listed on Schedule A (which appears at 20 CFR §656.10) and that the wages and working conditions of United States workers similarly employed will not be adversely affected by the employment of aliens in Schedule A occupations. A discussion of these "precertified" categories appears below.

Precertification of Certain Professions Under Schedule A, Group I

Group I of Schedule A currently includes the following occupations:

1. persons who will be employed as physical therapists, and who possess all the qualifications necessary to take the physical therapist licensing examination in the State in which they propose to practice physical therapy; and

2. aliens who will be employed as a nurse;

The term "physical therapist'' is defined to mean a person who applies the art and science of physical therapy to the treatment of patients with disabilities, disorders and injuries to relieve pain, develop or restore function, and maintain performance, using physical means, such as exercise, massage, heat, water, light, and electricity, as prescribed by a physician (or surgeon).

A fascinating discussion is worth comment. I do believe that you ought to write more about this issue, it may not be a taboo matter but
generally people do not talk about such topics.

To the next! Many thanks!!
