Dallas Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

[CAPD02]

Dull in Dallas,
Please don't worry, my PD is 06/12/2002 and I replied to 45 day letter way back, but my status is still RIR. I don't know why they are approving Jan/Feb '03 cases left and right, but not concerned about cases that have much earlier PD.
I hope someone takes a look into it soon...

Hey,

Atleast all of you know the status. Mine is so bad, there is no reply for my status request. So I don't know whether it is DataReview/RIR/Certified/Closed.

I got the following information from an e-mail forwarded to me by my lawyer.
My company is applying for my 7th year extension. Aug 25, my lawyer (assistant) sent an e-mail (I can't see the "to" information) to request for screenshot and got a response in 3 hours The e-mail format:

The screenshot shows:

Appreciate your reply, but I'm still not on the 7th year extension. Likewise, can I still send the request thru that e-mail address?

My details are:
CA-RIR
PD : March 30, 2004

Even, if you arenot going to be on the 7th year extension, you can try and see what response you may get. If you check this board, you will also see a similar email-id for the Dallas BRC. send an email request to that email-id also.

Pleeeease provide update on the RIR queue ~~!!~~

Icarus,
Last time u did not update for 3 weeks the queue moved from mid dec to mid jan. Looks like the processing is slowing down. The Dallas BEC cleared less than 10k cases so far (was around 5k for the july 4th weekend). The processing started around mid march. Approximating this is coming close to
2 1/2 applications (certified) per analyst per day. This is much lower than the 4 mentioned earlier. Looks vey bleak. Hope they pick up again.

Question for all u LC Gurus especially Iracus:
Can you fill a PERM application if ur RIR application is pending in Backlog Center.
Also my PD is 05/2004 RIR
The screen shot I got says TR does that matter.Screen shots can be erroneous.

Questions for Icarus

It may not be as desperate as it seems....Although he is the head of the DOL contingent responsible for Certifying applications at the Dallas BEC, he is not the one responsible for processing of applications from transfer to RIR/TR. Once these processes have been completed, applications are sent to CO's in the office to review and certify/deny based upon the application's particulars.

Icarus,

I have a couple of questions for you.

1. My 45 day letter went the employer's old address, fortunately we received it before the deadline. While responding to the letter my employer included a note with the new address. My attorney also says that they informed BEC of the address change. It was in Mar 05 and no further info so far. Do you think I have to send the email to bec again with a new address or they already would have taken care of it.

2. Do you have any recent statistical data on the number of cases approved, final review etc in the case of RIR/TR cases and the queue status

FYI: My case is Traditional

I appreciate your reply and Thanks in advance

update

Right now it's running about 8-10% instead of the 20-30% originally hypothecized by DOL prior to the contract with Exceed

Icarus, we are all waiting for your information on the latest trend in the 'Q' .please update.your last update was 8/21/05. please show some light for all of us.
thank you,

Jnpr,
My attorney was hired by my company. He is an American attorney. He is little bit reluctant to investigate this problem.
I don't know how to convince him that it could be a typing error ,that the PD on the snap-shot isn't the same as the PD on the Recieved Letter sent from SWA.
Unless, I am 100 % sure that both should be same, I am not going to request him to investigate this problem. If he is an Indian Attorney , I would have requested him.

For my observation/understanding, PD on screenshot or in your file with DBEC is everything you have now.
Your name is in a Dallas database sorted by PD. FIFO by PD is applied if you are in the queue---if you are not in process queue your case will be touched after the end of queue.

Because your case is at Dallas now, all your record before Dallas means nothing now unless you correct it. If Dallas says your case is closed then your case is closed. Your right is to fight and correct it, like many others who reopened case after being closed. Some people even considered congressional inquiry for PD because PD is very important.

Good luck!

Raji12 & Dull in Dallas

I have similar PD but Status is still "RIR". One of the question is what's "Case Source" showing in your screen? Mine is "State", but I am pretty sure that my case is sent to regional office and it is transfered from regional office to BEC. Did the analyst make mistake when they input my record so it cause the delay???

Case source

I have similar PD but Status is still "RIR". One of the question is what's "Case Source" showing in your screen? Mine is "State", but I am pretty sure that my case is sent to regional office and it is transfered from regional office to BEC. Did the analyst make mistake when they input my record so it cause the delay???

My case source shows as 'Region'.

 

[grantb4]

Hi,

Can anyone teach me how to request or get a status of my LC application? Is there a specific format? To what e-mail address should I send the request.

Thank you and appreciate your reply!

Chloekyle, please let us know if you send a request and if your request gets an answer. I am in exactly the same boat as you. Same state, same date, also RIR, not on 7 year yet. All I have is state PD.

My other concern is that my lawyer moved around Christmas 2004 which means the post office will stop forwarding mail around Christmas 2005 and BEC might (will?) take longer than that and I have little hope that the BEC will be aware of address change. Does anyone know how to update that info??

Thanks,
GB

 

[gcseeker2002]

One of my friend whose PD is Jan'03 who got labor approved is planning to go back home , as he is in 8th year h1b already and feels that the retrogress would not allow 485 filing atleast till october 06 even after quota opens in oct 05.
Is there any way to search for companies having EB2 preapproved labor ?
