Here are some stats -"food for thought!
Friend A:
received at dol:12/05/2002
cleared by dol:2/10/2003
updated on system: march 17th 2003
Friend B:
received at dol:12/30/2002
cleared by dol:2/19/2003
updated on system:3/19/2003
Mine was sent to DOL by Ides on 2/19/2003...i have no idea when DOL received it<i don't have any reason to not believe they didn't as of today>. I checked the system this morning....there is no information on the system about my file on DOL.
I have good reason to believe two things..
The BAD-It takes over 3/4 weeks for DOL to update their systems, even in cases where the labor has been cleared.
The GOOD-From the last two labor certifications and past ones from my employer's database...the typical time to clear is around 7 to 10 weeks...but u won't know about the clearence till another 2/3 weeks.
so guys..cheer up...we are doin much better than most of the remaining zones.
peace
