GC_DJ said:If they lump together our applications (which has already cleared the state level) with all the pending state level appl., which they plan to transfer to NPC then we will be screwed big time. If they don not lump together then we will be fine. Any expert out there shed some light.
NO
They are not gonna mix up SWA cases with Cases in DOL. Pending cases at every DOL (including Chicago) will be transferred to One of the BEC (Phily or Dallas) in first phase & they will be processed in two national queues (RIR & Non RIR) First In First Out. In second Phase all the SWA cases will be forwarded to BEC for similar process.
from Jan 2005, all new cases will be forwarded to National Processing Center & It will be a one step process (not two SWA & DOL).
