Lessons
Unskilled cases still need a real job, compliant recruitment and long-term employer will. Other Workers does not mean “no paperwork.”
Global Immigrate’s recommendation
Confirm the PERM minimums are truly under the two-year skilled threshold so the case is not treated as skilled without proof. Prepare derivative documents on the same timeline as the principal.

No; any qualifying permanent full-time unskilled role may work, depending on employer and duties.
Is the backlog longer?
Other Workers often faces separate quota pressure—follow the Visa Bulletin.
