Non-RIR Feb 2003
Still, MA SESA processes non-rir cases filed on Feb 2003. It seems like every one in MA SESA went for election work.

Backlog Reduction Causing Backlog ??
Got the below link from other thread, thought may be informative why the process is so slow. From the document, it doesn't look like any SWA centers will open any Permanent LC cases until the cases are moved to either backlog reduction center or National Processing Center. If they open and process before it will be great.

Delhi To Daultabad - Medeival Time
Yes, you are right.. If you guys are aware of Indian subcontinent history, try to remember Alauddin Khilji who moved his capital from Delhi to Devgiri (Daultabad) and it was a trajic history.. I'm feeling here exactly that's gonna happen.. This Transition guide does not talk about 'How they will make process faster' probable 'Out Of Scope' for that particular guide. But if we apply our common sense , following are key loopholes..
- MOVING THE STAFF (Say if you are in MA as a SWA staff and now you have to move to Atlanta to do your job... Common human would fight necessary political battle to stop his/her transfer)
- Training new staff (I doubt this may happen. but still let's consider)
- Backlog will be compled transferred till March 2005.. You pray to your God
to get your case transferred in earlier stage of this time limit..
- Transition guide does not talk about 'How they will handle processing of cases' in parallel with transfer neither it claim that 'Transition Process' will not affect the processing of legitimate cases which need to be processed during that time period
- This guide does not talk about hiring extra manpower force to fulfill the challanges of transition process which is obviously the added process 'burden' to what the current staff is doing currently and now it will be 'Priority' so other work will be suffered.
- And most importantly just think, if you are SWA staff and you already know that what you are supposed to do now 'efficiently' is no longer a work for you from January 2005 then do you give a damn?
AND ALL THIS IS DOES ON THE NAME OF 'FASTER PROCESSING'
Wow !! I bet if you are stuck with priority date for an exmple sept 2003, you just add atleast 1 more year in what you might have achieved if this might not have done. Bottomline 1) you learn to wait 2) The beauty is that you are the sufferer and in the whole damn thing you do not have a right to utter a single word 3) Appreciate treating like shit 4) learn living in frustration.
I hope, they also might have laid out the lines for making the process faster once cases will be transferred to federal centers.. Let's watch painfully.

Company Closing Office
My Labour certification has been filed from Boston. Now my company has decided to close the Boston office, and relocate the employees to New York. Will my Labor petition be valid? Or will I have to start a new labor petition from New York again?
If I start working from home, and stay in Boston, while the company shifts the office to New York, can I keep my MA labor certification.
My six year will expire in Jan 2006. So I do not have enough time to start the labor certification from New York again.
Kindly advice, what is the best way to proceed.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Relocation
Hi Vivek,
It's surprising how your situation is similar to mine. After toying around with the idea of keeping my Massachusetts LC while my company was being relocated to another state, I figured that it's not possible to keep the labor from Massachusetts. Labor certification is a test of labor market conditions in a specific location so if your company moves then you have to test the labor market in the new location. That being said, you should also research the new DOL transition plan where they have talked about moving future LC applications to central National Processing Centers. If this plan goes into effect, applications from New York would also take the same amount of time as applications from Massachusetts.
Good luck!

Faith Based? where is value?
Now election is over and president is elected based on faith based and value based. Doesn't that mean it should be applied every where or only for election? As every one here in this thread trying to immigrate legally with lot of faith why it is getting delayed? But at the same time they are trying legalize the illegal immigrants? I don't understand the true faith and value here.
Administrator, if this is not appropriate post, please delete this.
MA SESA still processing NON-RIR Feb 2003 last 4 months.

I was told by the Paralegal at the Lawyers office that they received a letter from SWA saying that my case was forwarded to DOL.
Since my advertisement in the newspaper received no resumes at all, my lawyer told me that it should be quick to make a decision on my case as the SWA does not need to go throught the complicated process of screening the resumes and the corresponding recruitment results.
