Just confirmed with my lawyer that they have received my hard copy yesterday.
Case Recommended for Approval !!.
Folks,
I requested my Human Resources Manager to contact the Dallas Back Log elimination center and got an update on my case. The Lady who picked the call at the Backlog center told my HRM that my case has been recommended for Approval to the Department of Labor. She said most likely the case will be approved in a week or two. She also said that rarely a case gets rejected when it has been recommended for approval by the backlog center.
Case details.

Is it a kind of rule that BEC always sends a copy of LC certification to the employer?
I don't trust the lawyer-they are so sluggish - it took them about 3 weeks to complete and send back Recrutiment Report. So, if HR is supposed to get a copy I will know sooner than waiting from the lawyer. It is very critical issue now to prepare 140/485 and file them before Aug 17. I only have some doubts that I'll be able to talk HR and the lawyer into preparing the docs before they got hard copy of LC.

My case was also in that status on 5/10 (analyst has recommended for approval and case was forwarded to CO) and finally certified on 7/10. My Manager was keep calling DBEC every other day and finally it approved. Still waiting for hard copy.
Outcry from a BEC Backlog Victim
My labor certification (Traditional EB-3) is stuck in BEC since last 5 years. It is completely beyond my understanding why it took so long for BEC to process my case. Now everyone is rejoicing USCIS's decision to accept all green card applications, but I am paralyzed with the fear of facing another huge backlog on I-485 applications. One government agency sits on our applications for years and another government agency throws us further back in the line to cover up its blunders and guess what who pays the price: WE RULE-ABIDING, LINE-WAITING FOLKS.
Even if I get my labor approval before September, I will be among the last persons to get labor certification in spite of being the one with the earliest priority date. Nothing would give me greater pleasure than suing DOL BEC at this time. We may not sue DOL on their inability to clear the backlogs, but we can definitely sue them in their utter disregard to FIFO procedures (mind that some people with priority dates in 2004, 2005 have already got their labor certifications, but some with priority dates in 2001, 2002 are still stuck). When I read on their web site that they have tried to maintain FIFO, it makes me feel like puking.

Agree with You
I totally agree with you. This is so bad. Especially, for people who are waiting for their cases to clear from Backlog. What a mess it has been. Even though my case has been certified from Backlog, I can get see why the frustration comes. The BEC has made a huge backlog and people who are here with PD of 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004 are really in a bad shape. Those with PERM are lucky they did NOT get into this backlog mess
I would ask you to try and get as much information on your case and try to get it approved as soon as possible. The reason is no one cares for us - applicants. It is only us who can get our cases in some action. I have gone through my ad posting to getting my labor certified after constantly talking with my lawyers, HR and also contacting PBEC. Please follow up with them and get an update. Talk to your company HR if possible, so they can call the BEC as sometimes BEC will NOT talk to us - applicants Good Luck my friend

My attorney enquired today with DBEC and sent me an email saying my case has now been recommended for approval and we should check again by the end of next week. When I asked my attorney what they meant in simple English, she replied saying it meant the case was now forwarded to a officer for final review but they have no idea how long it may take to certify. So much for progress. Judging by your case above, that might mean another 2 month wait
.Case - D-05195-xxxxx (PD: Jun 04: EB2,TR)
Certified online - 7/9
Still waiting for hard copy.

Scary !!.
Why would the Certifying Officer take 2 months to approve the case. They have told that we should check the status again within a week. Hope it is a week wait not 2 months wait . This is scary. Its been a long wait, they reward us with approving the case immediately.

RRI report sent on 6/25 - Certified online on 7/9.
Looks like estimate of receipt of DBEC is around 20 days? (from previous posts)
I got a letter from DBEC stating my Labor is certified. The letter is cc-ed to my lawyer (which apparently has the signed original of ETA 750 form)
D-05195-xxxxx (EB2, TR, Jun 04)
RRI filed: 6/25
Date on Cert. letter received: 6/28 (So looks like they took only 3 days to certify)
Showed up "certified" online: 7/9
7/10 - waiting..
7/19 - waiting...
7/20 - waiting...
7/20 - afternoon - mailbox had the letter
Now the race to the finish line starts
Good luck to everyone out there...As I know DBEC is taking little longer than they took in June (It was in the order of a week to receive H.copy once it showed up as 'certified' - two of my colleagues got with in a week in June- Now it is more like 2 weeks)
Havent got a notificaton from lawyer yet..but they should have received it today.

Received hard copy today...
I had received the approval letter on June 18th and same day my manager got the letter. Also, my attorney was supposed to get the letter( as it is a cc) but they say they received it today. whatever...
Finally, I got the labor after 3 long years...got it the same day I was laid off 6 years ago...What a journey full of unexpected events! Still another long journey awaiting. Will try my luck there and see what's in store for me there...
Good luck to you all!
