PERM - Chicago vs Atlanta

jay2005 said:
If I don't get approval by this weekend, I am also planning to give up on PERM.( after spending so much time, money and energy).Good luck to all.

I am in the same club as you guys. Its been over 3 weeks since i sent the letter they asked for. I dont know why they take so long to decide. I am sure that even if it now gets certified, it would not give me enough time to avoid EB2 retrogression in Sept. God only knows how long we will have to wait if EB2 also retrogresses. I have lost all hope and faith in the system, this being my 3rd attempt at getting just the labor cert.

When Canada, Australia, UK can have simple forms which one can fill out without help of attorney and it takes much less time to immigrate to these courntries why can the US not follow. Looks like life is playing a joke, all my classmates who got rejected for US student visa went to study in Australia and are Aus. citizens by now and i am still a nomad even after having spent over 7 yrs. in the US.

:( :mad: :mad: :mad:

Thank you for sharing with us this great news. Can you confirm again if these certifications were for applications filled in may/june? Here was the problem with the old applications never seeing light. Are you sure they are from may/june? It does not matter the rerun issue, since all of them were rerun on 6/24 and 7/29.. Please, write us back ASAP

Sorry, no info regarding this and as a matter of fact I do not want to bug my employer about these, coz everyone knows that stage from July 28th was In-Process anyway.
 
Hi All,
What is the processing time difference between filing form 9089 online and sending form 9089 by mail in Atlanta? Did anybody send the form by mail. Any updates?

Thanks,

Certified

Friends,

I have a good news to share..

My application filed on 05/16 has been certified as of today.

This was the first application which got denied rightaway and went to Audit review on June 24 and finally to InProcedd on 07/28. Also against this application I recieved a letter for some documentation..

I wish you all to recieve the same news by this week.

I will keep posted on any development...


Note: this was my very first application.. Not the later one which was filed on 05/20. The later still shows as certified.
 
Hi rajaabhi,

Congratulations...this is very good news indeed. Hope we see a number of us from the group stuck at Chicago being certified this week.
Does it now seem to be moving in a FIFO order? Pavanreddy indicated that 3 cases filed in the 2nd week of May got Certified on last Friday, yours from May 16 got certified today...so, maybe things are now progressing in FIFO.
Please do let us all know when you receive your certified hard copy in the mail - hope you get it soon and all the best for filing the rest of the steps.

Thanks
Prats
 
One question: After the hardcopy of certified LC is gotted, Is there any time limitation to submit I-140 and/or I-485? I mean if the submission of I-140 can be 2 months or more later than the reception of LC?
 
Rajaabhi:
Congratulations !!! What a way to start the week. This is the best news in months. I hope you have smooth ride in the rest of the stages. Let's see whats in store for rest of us stuck in here.
Go Party !!!!

email

Folks,
When the status changes from "In Process" to "certified" will the lawyer/hr get an automatic email? Or the only way to check is to login every now and then and find out whether it has been certified or not?

I applied on 24th May and still waiting.
