PERM - Labor Certification

Must we withdraw a PERM application if the employee is laid off?

Here is a set of questions posed to me recently by one of our clients:

I am Mr. Jones, the employer. The employee, Mr. Smith, is no longer employed with us because of company's budget issue. However, we may hire him in the near future if circumstance changes.

My question:
Q1. Do we need to withdraw PERM LC for him that was submitted 2009?
The status is still in process now. I would like to know if this PERM LC still has any goods for him. Let me know the pros & cons between withdraw it and not withdraw it.

FAQ Transcript

Under Department of Labor regulations for mobile or consultant roles, employers can designate their corporate headquarters as the primary place of employment on the Green Card application (PERM). Working remotely from different states or client locations does not negatively impact Green Card processing as long as the headquarters is designated appropriately as the primary work site.
