Re: IL SESA NO.
There is a phone no for SESA. But there is no automated voice mail system - so you would have to speak with the officer to get the information. At times they do not give it to you, only to the attorney or the employer.

LC question
Hi,
I have applied LC from CA and SESA level is cleared and now it is in DOL. Now, I have switch company and it is in different state than CA. Is it possible to file LC for new company directly with DOL and eliminate SESA level ??
Please advice.
Thanks,
Rama.

Current processing times in Chicago
Hi fellow sufferers...
For those who've applied for labor recently (around Apr-May of this year) from Chicago, in what timeframe are you all expecting the approvals?
I am wondering as I am getting ready to file. I have heard that the the times are around 7-8 months for labor. True? Close? totally wrong??
Wld appreciate any inputs to this. When do u guys expect to have the EAD's by?
My attroney told me it'll take around 7 months (4 for fed and 3 for state) for the labor. But few friends (applied in Nov 01) said they took over 1 year. Have the times gotten faster?
Please, Please, Please, requesting help.
Thanks so much- may u all get the good news ASAP

Automated email not responding
I have been sending several emails to Automated email response at lcstatus05@doleta.gov with my employer tax id in the email body in the format of Tax ID XX-XXXXXXX since Friday 5.00 PM and haven't got any response.
I thought it is automated and the response is instant.
Does anyone know if it automated email response system down or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks,

--- I don’t say it is true or totally wrong, only few states have that 7-8 month others are waiting for more than around 2 years in RIR cases
Wld appreciate any inputs to this. When do u guys expect to have the EAD's by?
--------LC is filed with SESA, then SESA forward it to regional DOL, then LC is certified or denied, if certified then employer files for I-140, now one can file for I-140, I-485 EAD and AP at the same time, if the BCIS finds I-140 approvable then they approve EAD, how much time it will take to get EAD depends on service centers, many got in 3-4 months others got in 4-5 months time, every case is different and no stranded time to get EAD.
My attroney told me it'll take around 7 months (4 for fed and 3 for state) for the labor.
----- No attorney can give you guarantee as he/she is not working for SESA or DOL Don’t know where your employer Head office is where you are going to file if regular or RIR, every case is different
But few friends (applied in Nov 01) said they took over 1 year.
---- They are correct; many are waiting for more than 2 years
Have the times gotten faster?
The LC movement was very less in DOL or SESA recently they have moved in few states, don’t know about the future.
you can visit DOL site and note the SESA and DOL processing dates

How to Link SESA File No with Automated Information
When contacted on the Phone No given above (Labor Dept.), based on the Employer's Phone No, it lists all the cases filed by my employer since Last one year.
How to corelate the information given by this automated message with individual SESA case No?
My Priority date is 02/21/2003.
Thanks!

IL SESA does not have an automated voice system. It is also not recommended to call IL SESA and check for your State Labor status. If you feel it has taken too long - pl ask your attorney to check.
The only other way to find out approval of your state labor approval is:
- Call Chicago DOL AVM system 1-312-353-1059, and enter '1' for permanent applications and next menu press '2' if you don't know the case number -> enter your company 10 digit phone number (which was enter in labor application on form 750A)
- List down all the applications you hear along with DOT codes
- Find out DOT codes classification on
http://online.onetcenter.org/
Select "find occupations" and enter the dot codes w/o dots (!) or dashes.
- Co-relate your job profile with the DOT code
- If there are multiple applications with your DOT code, it may not be possible to find out.
Lastly - Wait for a while. DoL will send out your case no information in about a month. Its taking about 3 months for approval in Chicago; imagine the plight of guys from other regions where its taking them 1 year!

Tks for your response , Ginnu
I saw in the above threads and the tracker.xls that the avg. time for an RIR case is 150 days (i.e. just over 4 months).
I certainly know that CA takes approx 1.5-2 yrs for labor (I took 1.8 yrs, while co-workers filed on same day, got RFEs).
Well, anyway, I think I am going to take an offer I have of getting a labor transfer and going staright for 140/485 from CA, rather than starting with labor from Chicago.
Best of luck to everyone.
