RD June 2003

State: California

congratulations. what was ur exact date of PD :which day in august? when (full date) was ur application certified?
 
I have received many PMs in last one week asking about approval & status from Dallas BPC.. I am trying to respond each one but Its difficult to answer each person separately. If you are only looking for Information about latest approvals from Dallas BPC please keep on checking DATABASE at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DallasBEC/ Or (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DallasBEC/database) Group members daily update the database with latest approvals.

thanks

Has any one given a thought to this???

Copies of the approval letter are sent to both the employer and the beneficiary. the certified application is sent only to the employer or their agent/attorney

Questions:
Can this be done?

What documents does the attorney need to send?

How will it affect case # of X's LC? Will it have to reentered and be pushed back as 2005 data entry case?

How will it affect my pending LC app. at TWC?

Before submitting change request, how can attorney find out if X's LC has not already been approved?

Thanks a million,

NetNerd

If the attorney sends in the substitute information before the case for X has been approved, as long as your qualifications are within the parameters of the original job/education/experience as listed on the 750A, substitution should not be a problem. It should not affect the PD. If the substitution is successful, in order to avoid problem(s) down the road, your original application would have to be withdrawn. Your attorney can call the backlog center and ask for a check of status. The attorney might have better luck submitting the request in writing as verbal inquiries are mostly being referred to the DOL FAQ page. The trick will be for your employer/attorney to coordinate their efforts as the RIR queue is already into 10/02 (you didn't specify RIR or TR)...Plan B, if the cert has already been approved, would be for the employer to substitute after the fact. This is possible but more difficult as they would have to go through USCIS.

Hello Icarus,

So, do they send Approval letter to Home??
Thats a big problem for people who moved so houses in the past 3 years!!!
Unless the attorney/employer has submitted an amendment to the 750 indicating the employee's new address, the letter will go to the original address listed on the application :(
 
ICARUS,Kindly give your suggestions

ICARUS,

Thank you for your updates and help to the forum.

As you know there are lot of people in this forum not yet received their status with regard to their LC's(RIR) whose PD's falls between Jan,02 to June,02.I apolozize if I have left any months.But per your resources it appears that current queue is at Oct,02.I know it is very hard to explain all of the reasons why those Jan,02 to Jun,02 people's LC are not pickedup,But per your knowledge what could be the possible reasons that you could think as to why these cases has not been pickedup yet.I appreciate your thoughts on this very important issue in advance.Thanks again.

Congratulations for your certification!
Can you please share with us what is your recruitment clarification call about? That might help many people in this forum.

Sure.... The call was to ask for more detailed information on what basis the applicants were dis-qualified. My Atterney, prepared a detailed list having each applicants name, address and contact information and the reason for why they were not qualified with a covering letter which was signed by my employer and sent to BEC. Hope this clarifies.
 
Indiana Cases

Dear Icarus,

I have never made a personal request to you. This is my first request to you. Will you please tell us if you know or can get some info, about Indiana cases of SWA from April 2001, which never went to Regional... We are waiting here since last 4 years and cases from 2002/2003 are getting approved. I feel good that my friends are getting approved but feel bad that I am stuck for last 4 years..... Any info about Indiana cases please ? May be it is too much to ask, ....Can you give that Indiana box to data entry person? You can feel my pain for last 4 years, not able to change job, spouse cannot work, financial burden .... list can go on.

So dear friend, will you please get some info about Indiana cases? Are there any weekly meetings at Dallas office ? If you attend those, can you please somehow explain Indiana situation... I am sure you can help. Regards
 
Labor approved

Hi,
I am very happy to inform you that my labor has been approved. Here are the details:

1. PD: July 1st 2002, State cleared in Aug 2003.
2. Job Requirement: BS+2 yrs. My exp at the time of application: BS + 2.5 yrs
3. State: CA: Received notification letter from Dallas BEC in March 2005.
4. Company was small with about 30 people at the time of filing.

I had no hope because everybody was saying that in CA only BS+3yrs are getting approved and others are getting RFEs. But this is definitely a miracle. Thank you God and thank you all the people here for being so supportive.

Actually its just the I-129, family related fees plus any attorney fees assuming you are in year 6+ of your H1B. The other real inconvenience is not being able to leave the country without visiting a US embassy each year....
 
icarus

Am I the only one?

Hi y'all,
Am I the only one with PD of Jan 2002 who has not received the labor approval yet? Is there anybody else with PDs of June 2002 or earlier who haven't heard anything from Dallas BEC?

I have seen a lot of approvals from PDs of June, July, Aug 2002 but not a lot from Jan, Feb, Mar 2002.

Thanks.
 
Thanks a Million Icarus

It is RIR from Texas (PD - 7/2002). I will send this to my attorney and see what he can do.
