Dallas Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

[rspr]

All,

With the criticality of the 45 day notice letter of transfer to a BEC, in that a no-reply will be a cause for a permanent case closure, I was concerned as to how the BEC is mailing these letters. Since any delays in the mail delivery, or even the case of a missing mail, undelivered mail, etc, which could happen, even if the chances are small, could cause a permanent case closure.

I am also thinking in the same sense and agree with you completely. I only wish there is some automated system to find the status.

Does any body know which BEC (dallas/Philly) the SFO cases went to? I know it is half each, but any ranges of case numbers?

Thanks

Are you sure the PD is 4/19/04??
That seems relatively recent.

Yes I am positive. I think everyone will be getting the letter its the matter of time, I think they are sending the letter randomly.

Any approvals

I could be asking too fast but looks like people have been receiving letters and responses have been sent by the lawyers. Are there any actual approvals at all?

Icarus, do you know when BEC might actually start approving? Is there a time frame when they might start?

Happy Holidays!!!!

Atlanta cases to Dallas BEC?

Icarus,

Do you have any idea if Atlanta cases are also going to Dallas BEC and when? No approvals are comming out of Atlanta DOL these days.

Thanks

Contents of the shipment from Chicago are unknown other than that the cases being sent have qualified as "backlogged". Cases being sent have not been processed by Chicago other than having received a Regional Office received date. All processing on forwarded cases will be accomplished at the BEC. The cases have not been received in Dallas as of today but it is understood that they are en route. Once these cases have been inventoried, and data entry accomplished, 45-day letters will begin to be generated and sent out. You're probably looking at several weeks at least before letters begin to arrive back in the region.

Presently, only 45-day letters to confirm continuation of the application and to correct errors in the application are being sent/returned. Once responses begin arriving (yes, there have been a few), analysts will begin reviewing applications in two FIFO queues, RIR and Traditional and recommending cases to certifying officers for approval or denial. Actual review process will most likely (scheduled) begin after the first of the year.

Where ATL backlogged cases get processed largely depends upon whether PERM goes into effect anytime soon. In PERM's absence, ATL will assist in working on their own backlog unless/until DOL decides otherwise. As the rough geographical division is the Mississippi river (Chicago's backlog being an obvious exception), the presumed BEC that will handle ATL's backlog will be Philadelphia, but that could change.

Thanks Icarus. It is of great help.

Thanks a lot for the info Icarus. Hope things will be better in 2005 for every one.

rcvd letter from bec

My employer rcvd letter from DALLAS BEC on DEC16 2004. They were asking for the continuation of the file, they had correction list for the employers and the alien information. In my case there was no correction list, they just required the employer signature's for continuation of the file and reply within 45 days time period. My case is in RIR, DOL recieved date is september 30, 2003. My employer mailed the letter on December 20, 2004 and i am crossing my finger for the reply.
