This is from INS Memo: What exactly is Progressive Experience? "Progressive experience" is not defined by statute or regulation. Its plain meaning within the context of EB-2 adjudications is relatively simple; employment experience that reveals progress, moves forward, and advances toward...

Go thro' these links and probably you will get answers (or may be more new questions??) http://www.murthy.com/news/n_doltra.html http://www.murthy.com/news/n_dolsen.html - D

Yes, all new applications will go to National Processing Centers after 01/01/2005 (or PERM after whenever it is implemented). But nobody knows for sure exactly how it is going to work and how much time it is going to take to process these new applications.

Going backwards... again I just spoke with person at SESA and she was saying they are processing RIR cases on or before 02/03/2004, so they are going backwards again. I don't know what exactly is going on, any ideas??

- Most probably your application will go to NPC as a new application and not a backlogged application since it is relatively new one (if it was still unopened on Dec 31 2004)

Hmmm... it was quick. SESA (state) is working on Jan 2004 cases currently. It would be 4-6 more months otherwise, may be they are favoring people with your skills.

Murali, Thanks for update. What is the assessment notice? What is your Degree+Experience?

Currently Processing: RIR - 01 Dec 2003 Non-RIR - 27 APR 2001

Actually yes. Whatever info I read about BRC so far, CA was never on the list. But answers by attorneys (in other forums) indicated that "eventually" they will take on all cases (including CA), but CA doesn’t seem to be picked up in near future.

Thanks, at least it is moving. Everybody, please post the dates whenever you hear new status. Thanks for the contribution.

I guess it is (916) 653-5100

1. You can not move the labor application from CA to MI. You have to file fresh application from there. 2. You still can get 7th Yr extension, based on the application filed in CA (if you had 365 days left on H1 limit when you filed LC App.), even though you won't be using that LC later and...

vasu_c, Thanks for updating the dates. RIR seems quite a jump.

Looks like 'basss' is out of this forum, who used to give regular updates on state processing times.

ZB, Nirvan is from AZ and not from CA. Even though its San Fran. DOL, the LC processing time is different for CA and non-CA states. So if you are from CA, your processing time won't relate with Nirvan's.

I don't know if PERM is going to help or not. Most probably it won't help old cases. But there is 'Backlog reduction program', which is supposed be already in place by now. They claim that in 2 years all the pending cases (nationwide-310000 including regular/rir), should be cleared. But I don't...

scorpio76, That really is frustrating. I read somewhere on the forum about CA DOL remanded cases. Many of them where remanded to state without even reviewing the case (at time around your case remand). The situation was corrected later by stop sending it back to state without review. I am not...

Hi basss, That indeed is a good news! I hope they are doing it right. Thanks for the updates and keep it up!!!

Hi All, My situation: Entered US on 26th APR 1999. 6 Yrs completing on 26th APR 2005. Current H1 valid till March 25th 2005 LC filed on March 29th 2004 So I am eligible for 7th Yr extension (LC will be pending for > 365 days) - which can be filed 180 days before expiration of 6th year...

Just a guess: The assessment notice form SWA are mostly related to prevailing wage (It happens generally if salary mentioned in application is lower than prevailing wage for your position and even 5% variance might not be accepted). There can always be other reasons for the assessment notice...
