Do you mean your case was moved to TR before it went to BEC?

She said it was prior to BEC days. And i personally think the reason was due to layoffs consequent to the .com bubble burst.

 

[va_aug_2002]

My Employer Called PBEC this morning to get the status and here are the details

1) 45 day letter is received
2) Case was put in review queue
3) Initial review is completed
4) Next step is to be reviewed by an analyst for approval

It could take up to 6 months but he cannot guarantee if it will take less or more time

PD: November, 27 , 2001
FL, TR
45 Days letter received in middle of 2005 and replied.

Thanks

That is detailed status!

Which number they called?

VA labor Approved

Hi All,
I'm a silent reader of this forum. I checked my mail box today (13 July 2006) and surprised/happy to know that my labor certified got certified after 3.5 years of waiting. The forum certainly kept my hopes alive. I hope all of you in this forum will get their labor certified soon. See you in the I140/485 forum. Below is my case info.

PD: 01/16/2003

Did your case make it to Regional, or was it sent to BEC before it reached regional?

I am trying to see if there is any connection between recent NOFs and making it to regional. If the state approved it, I don't see how PBEC can come back after 3 years and argue that recruiting efforts made by the company are not sufficient.

 

[sjl]

special handlings are jobs like teacher, nurse etc, they are in fast track, not like regular labor.
I saw the database from DOL, some kind of doctors can get labor approved in about 2 weeks, which was from Brigham&women hospital of boston.

What do you mean by 'special handling'. I dont think there was any special circumstance or such. And he is EB3

for A1FL

Hello A1FL, it seems both of our cases are running neck to neck (see my signature). I guess we should keep in touch and update each other with any progress.

NOF unfairness

Just FYI, I read a comment of an immigrant attorney made on the other forum about Stephen Stefanko's retirement, the attorney said it could be a good news because the former head of PBEC was infamous for being picky and strict in RIR applications, in particular, IT cases. I guess Stefanko issued a bunch of NOFs crazyly before his retirement to make our lives tougher.

Can we do something against this unfairness? We have to bring PBEC’s attention that same candidates from DBEC and PERM are getting approval.. Otherwise this will continue for 2003 – 2004 cases also…

I don't think there is much you can do about this, Stephano is retired so he is not in-charge anymore.

Special handling

Thanks for the info. My collegue works for a wireless consulting company so he does not fall under any special handling case. I wish it did since I too would be eligible but it is not the case. And again his PD was Dec 2003

Special handling case is for people teaching in universities, or research in colleges. Also some nurses etc gets special handling treatment.

any news about case status

does anyone have any idea about DOL's Case status link? I heard they will put something by the end of this month.. I have not seen any news on their website though.. any idea?

 

[nohope_for_lc]

German or Spanish

People in this forum are so frustrated I think they don't care about Status Check or Visa Bulletin. It has became the first priority to analyze if the head of PBEC ( I forgot the name) is German or Spanish.

There is a link for Check case status over here... http://www.ows.doleta.gov/foreign/contacts.asp

Look at the right hand side, below you will see. ofcos this link is not active yet, it goes nowhere. But since there is a link there is atleast a hope that they would activate this link by end of this month.

Called 202 number and got my case status. The bad news: nothing happened since the 45-day letter received. So basically, my case has been sitting there and collecting dust for the last 14 months. The good news: I won't be caught in this round of NOF flood. I don't think PBEC can keep sending tons of applications to TR. They would soon realize how much more work they need to do if they keep doing this. Given their lazyness and incompetance, this extra workload gonna deeply depress them. So hopefully, they will stop this NOF non-sense soon. Well, at least I hope so.

[wlj_wzz]

PD Nov,2003. My boss called twice and both calls were transfered to a voice message. I called once later and got the luck to talk to a live person. By the way, I didn't tell them I was the alien. I didn't say who I was at all .
