Dallas BEC Approval Queue Tracker

I want to share this good news with all of this forum people.....thanks for all your support........

Today i reecived FINAL DETERMINATION LETTER THROUGH POSTAL MAIL FROM DFLC BACKLOG ELIMINATION CENTER ( Big White envelope)

POSTAL MAILED DATE: 11/16/2005

Approval DAte: Nov 10, 2005

Date of Acceptance for Processing: November 13, 2003
 
Some one in this form mentioned that the trend of the approval cases shows that the people who are getting approvals are the cases that do not have NOF at state level. I was trying to correlate with the BEC tracker, which is published in this form. But failed.

Can some one tell me that they are leaving out the cases completely, which has NOF at state level and taking only straight forwards cases?

Is there any one cases from 2002 or 2003 who received NOF at state level and got approval letter in this form?

All the best in future steps.

my case is still in data review status only.
PD: 06/30/2004
state: CA
No 45 days letter yet.

but why my processing type is TR instead of RIR? My case is RIR EB2, I have the receipt from state LC office confirmed that. But why my processing type is not RIR in the ETA database? because they did not input all the data in the database? anyone has similar situation? should I contact them to correct the data?

thanks a lot!

Alas my friend,
You are caught in the same vicious loop as me. My case is RIR EB2 with PD of May 2002. It was miscategorized and is still pending. I have tried contacting Dallas BEC through lawyer, DOL, Senator to no avail till now..

:mad: :(
 
Hey Zany :

I remember you, you were very active during Feb/March 05. Sorry to know about the mis-categorization. Did you try anything else ? like writing a personal letter to DBEC and asking your lawyer to call DBEC and explain to someone ?

Also, What does your screenshot say ? are you comfortable requesting for another one, does that say TR / RIR ?

Thanks,
-M
 
Cannot find the database with DBEC info.

I am trying to find the database with the priority dates, 45 day letter, etc for Dallas BEC but couldn't find it.

Kindly post me the link to the database.

Thanks,

Shanti

hi Zany Brainy, I feel sorry, please keep emailing them through your attorney to remind the mistake they have done.the people who were in your catogary EB2 already got half way through in I-485. they are likely to get GC soon. so dont giveup your right to remind your lawyer.

I think the rule has changed.
1)All those who already applied their I-485 have to wait till their PD become current.
2) Once their date is current then they will be processed in order by PD and not by the date they applied.
Correct me if I am wrong. I heard this from couple of my friends who applied 485 and this is what there lawyer says.
 
Here's my info to the tracker

I am new to this tracker, but I've been reading it regularly. I is really a great tracker, keeping our hopes alive. I know I am getting closer and closer day by day and I am just waiting for my fruitful day to hear "LABOR CERTIFIED..."

Dear Sir / Madam,

Sub: Delay in Foreign Labor Certification Application approval process at BECs

I would like to bring it to your attention the delays in LCA approval process at the two BECs, most notably the Philadelphia. I have been waiting for almost 2 years since the commencement of two BECs and have not recieved our apporvals.

Me and my family are suffering constantly due to these delays. Please take necessary measures to speed up the approval process.

I would be highly obliged if you look into this matter as soon as possible.

Sincerely,
your name
City, State, Zipcode
