New BEC to handle backlogs
Here is the email which was in response to another email :
I heard that BPC is moving the cases to new center and will send another 45 days letter. Also it will be easy to track the status of these cases from the new center and new case id will also be assigned.
Don't know if this will help OR further delay the labor approval.

I just received my second 45-day letter....got the first one more than
one year ago (PD: 02/27/04, RIR, EB2, Missouri) and now my lawyers got
another one!!
I don't know whether it is a good or a bad sign...but I think it
certainly gives us an idea about how poorly organized these BECs are.
Good luck to you all.

Weeks... months go by
Hello All,
For a while it seemed that PBEC was picking steam and now it seems it has slowed down again.
Every day, we wait and watch and the wait seems almost endless. Guys who were lucky enough to have their application go to DBEC already have their EAD's and here we are waiting to get our labor cases approved.
The approach PBEC is taking is "Don't call us, we'll call you". And we wait for the call... Every week becomes more painful than the week before.
With a PD Sep 02/EB2/RIR, I was hoping that the end will be in sight soon but alas ...

Same thoughts exactly. No matter how much I try to keep away from this forum and from my mailbox and concentrate on other things, its just not easy!!2002calabor said:
Finally, I sent an email to H1 7th year address today. So far no reply.
One question, if I had received screen shot after replying 45 days and in that screen shot if the case number was P- , does that mean I can safely assume my case is open and won't be closed or there are still chances that it might be closes at some other stage?
I agree with you...
It clearly seems because Dallas did so well, DOL might be transferring cases to DBC. However, because the system is so efficient, their is a good chance if something gets misplaced - though I am hoping since now data is online; dbc can access the application by click of a button (depends upon the designed software 2
...bottomline is - we are still shunting; as DOL keeps their promise of testing our patience... how abou taking help from people like Bill Gates if federal authorities are not helping? Think about it - after all who pays the bills/taxes?

Update
Today my lawyer talked to somebody at PBEC and asked about my case. They told the standard answer that it is in process. When asked about mixed approvals with diff priority dates in 2002, they told they are working on 2002 cases in no particular order. They are going by year. For RIR cases it includes state level and region level cases in 2002. They don't have any projected date when they would be done with 2002 cases.
Probably that explains why we see few approvals from Oct 2002 and then few from July or Aug 2002. And many with earlier priority dates are waiting.
So those with 2001 dates, contact your lawyers and make them call PBEC. You should get your approval pretty soon or else you need to find out what is going on.

Lets hope it is true. That is much better than PBEC following the high priority logic of first clearing cases based on Qualification and Job requirement all the way till 2005 and then revisting the rest of the cases.mdgc2001 said:

I'm a silent reader for a while, and on the verge of going crazy...I have seen some approval recently for CA RIR between July and October of 2002. Mine is CA EB2/RIR with priority date of March 2002, and wondering if there are someone else in the similar time frame still waiting...

In the ETA application form the minimum degree required is M.S., while in the job advertisement it states like this: Qualified candidats need to have B.S. or M.S. with 2 or 3 yrs experience. I know it's very ambiguous but Could you please tell me which category my case belong to.
Tahnk you!
