Philadelphia Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

[waitinglist2003]

Hi everyone,
I know this is not a proper thread to ask this question. However I searched the whole forums, found all H1 threads are not really active. I would appreciate if anyone could provid me the right thread. It will be great if you know the answer of my questions. I filed the 2nd 3yr extension for my H1 from California center. My notice date is June1, however, the processing date on the website updated on Aug 3 is already June 2, I still haven't heard anything from them yet. I just called. The lady didn't give me any information just told me they won't really provide addional handling for any case filled within 90 days. I'm really worried about it since my current H1 is expiring. Has anyone experienced the similar situation before? I really appreciate your response and any input. Please help!

type your case number in online check status site and then it will tell you if your case is approved or in process.. and if you have recipt you do not need to worry about expiring..

Labor approval trends

Hi,

I am sure we have several readers looking at approval trends from PBEC. I had a question regarding the recent approvals upto March, 2003.

Are we seeing approvals for only regional RIR cases or are we getting approvals from state RIR cases as well?

I could not glean this information from the tracker.

My employer received a final determination letter this morning. Thank you for your support and advice over the years. There were many times that I resorted to this form for support and advice and each time I walked away enlightened.

Some words of wisdom:
For years I took the back seat and waited on DOL to process my labor certificate. In June of this year I wrote letters requesting the assistance of congressmen senators. I also wrote the Department of Labor for a status update. Within 2 months my labor certificate was approved.

Good luck to all....I wish you the best
Regards,
Mark

Good to see a MD 2001 case got approved! Hope mine is close. Do you mind sharing your case number? I am also from MD and with PD of 2001.I doubt writing to senators and DOL officials will help since I have done that two months ago too.

I hate to discourage you, but gess the lady was trying to be nice.

If your case with PD of June 2004 can be approved in a couple of weeks. Then PBEC can clear all the back logn in a period of 2-3 months.

Any ways I wish you would get out of this mess(black hole) in two weeks as the lady said. Good luck.

Any patterns?

Looking at the recent approvals, it looks like cases belonging to a state are clubbed together and seem to be getting approved around the same time frame. For example, the CA cases seem to get approved till Dec 02, with only a few cases beyond that date having been approved, then NY cases getting approved almost till 3/2003, and now VA cases getting approved as if the world is going to end

So, where does FIFO come in here? Is it FIFO within a state??

Btw, any updates on the DOL case status link?

Hi:
I sent pbec an email. but no response on case status.
My specifics are:

PD Feb 2004

RD August 2004

Received 45 day Love letter Feb 2005. Attorney replied couple of days after receiving letter.

Case # P-04289-xxxxx

Can someone give me any idea what is happening and when I might hear anything from them.

Thanks

 

[sselva69]

I have about 9 years of experience. All the experience is with the current and only employer i was with. I know that EB2's minimum requirement is Masters or 5+ years of experience.

My current employer has filed for GC in the EB2 category. Off late I heard different versions. Some say experience with current employer does not count ..... Is there any truth to this argument ?


PD: 11-FEB-2005
VA/EB2/RIR
45 Day Replied: March - 2006

Yes, they are correct. Experience with the employer is not accounted.
