Chicago DOL tracking part 7

Status verification in Chicago
My lawyer says, my case was transferred to Chicago in the second week of December. But when I check in the automated email system, I do not find it. Is this normal or something I need to act now to save time & tension? How to verify whether my file has been really transferred to Chicago or not? Is there any other way to check on this other than email? Thanks in advance.

DOL Predicts Increased Backlogs in Large States
From Matthew Perry\'s website: www.immigration-law.com:
At the DOL-AILA Liaison Meeting of 11/30/2001, DOL released that in
fiscal year 2001, DOL received over 106,000 new regular permanent labor
certifications nationally. In addition, over 235,000 245 (i) labor certifications
were received prior to the April 30, 2001 deadline. The 245 (i) cases
impacted heavily in New York, New Jersey, Texas, Illinois and California
where 65-70% of the 245 (i) cases were filed. In these states, the current
processing times do not factor in the 245 (i) cases because the SESAs have
not reached these cases yet. In New York current processing for
permanent cases is about 5 ½ years with RIR cases taking from 10 to 12
months. In Texas, regular cases are being processed in about 2 ½ years
with RIR cases taking about 1 year. In California, regular cases are being
processed in about 2 years with RIR cases taking 7 to 8 months. When the
states with the most serious backlogs reach the 245 (i) bubble, the
processing times will increase greatly. Some smaller states such as
Vermont, West Virginia, Illinois, Oklahoma, Iowa, Nebraska, Montana,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming and Hawaii have actually passed
the 245 (i) bubble and consequently processing in these states will be
quicker. Chronic staffing shortages at the SESAs and DOL regional offices
will reportedly continue.

I got your point but the number provided by Sri-IL are sound.
The processing is not crossbord and there is many cases in 05400XXX that have not yet been processed. But the fact that DOL has reached cases in 0540133X (likely not LR) means they are preocessing more cases compred to end of december. hang on you will be happy soon!

Case misplaced at Chicago.
My EB2 RIR case was approved by MI Labor in Late August 2001. Throughout all queries to the system did not show my process in the Chicago database.
Today, my attorney tells me that my case has been misplaced in Chicago and she is working "aggressively" to get my case back on track.
Are there any other people in this situation? What are my options other than waiting like patience on a monument?

I want some expert suggestions!
Hi, I want some expert suggestions!
My company would like to sponsor my EB3 RIR and had done
the ad posting Feb to Aug last year, the attorney (assigned by
company) was planning to send it out at end of Sep 2001, in Mid sep
the attorney called to say it was not a good time to submit and
suggested we do it end of the year, and in Nov when we discussed
the issue, she still didn\'t want to submit, saying it was bad
timing. After that i didnot contact her again. I was told the ad
posting will expire after 6 months, I am wondering if i should
force the attorney to send the LC appl out no matter what.
Some background info: this is a small consulting firm with less
than 20 people, even though small but has survived 4 yrs and
looks like it would survive this year, i got good pay (far beyond
the average EB3 ) before the company-wide pay cut beginning from
Sep 01, the bosses are very cooperative persons (one boss\'s GC
was done by that attorney). We had received 200 resumes from
the ad posting as far as i knew, of course some are qualifed
(they are far more qualified than my bosses). The company had
laid off some employees before the end of last year but no one
programmer.
My questions:
1, should I submit it ?
2, does the pay cut occuring in the company matter?
3, any kind suggestions as far as my situation is concerned?
I am posting in this thread because my case would apply to
Chicago DOL. Thanks a lot in advance!

I\'m no expert, but...
#1.To submit your labor petition, the ads that count should have run in the 6 months immediately prior to filing. In other words, to file an application now, you need ads placed in July-Dec of 2001. Illinois SESA does not even look at ads from before the previous 6 month period. So, you are probably looking at a brand new labor petition starting from scratch.
#2.The pay cut should not matter as long as the revised pay is still at or above the prevailing wage figures.
#3.I am not in Software/IT, so I would not hazard a guess about the right time to file-but my gut feeling is to post ads-using your own funds if necessary and apply as soon as the labor situation improves. If your Boss is friendly as you mentioned, they might agree to this plan.

congratulations
Seems for RIR DOL has advanced to 10/12/2001 cases as of yesterday. Great going, hoping mine will get approved by end of next week.
OH.. BTW light-le, is your case EB3 or EB2 and is it RIR or regular?
