Philadelphia Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

Aug03 said:
I've been tracking my online LC status since 10/2 periodically and needless to say it still shows In Process. For no reason or some silly reason that I don't know, I've also been tracking 7 case numbers before my number and 7 after mine to see if there were any changes in any of case numbers close to mine. Status of all these 15 cases never changed from 10/2 thru 10/15 (45 days). Today however, two cases, one right before mine and another couple numbers after mine displayed as Certified.

Does this give me any hope? May be not. No conclusions can be arrived at from above because PBEC is neither following FIFO nor following case number sequence.

Any stats guru or a fan of number munching - want make some sense out of this?

Well, the case number is not logically related to Priority Date and they are merely assigned (in sequence) to a LC case during the data entry phase. Please note that each case is unique in type, job description and labor market situation.

Also there are quite a few 2003 case approvals posted in trackitt thread. I think some analysts are working on the 2003 cases that were not cleared during the first wave of approvals.

My 2 cents.

I am right behind you. PD Sept 03, CA/RIR/EB3 P-04302-30xxx

I was under the impression the cases who have made thru the state would have a better chance. Let's see.

It appear that PBEC are approving different state other than CA :) I didn't see any approval for CA lately.

I might be wrong.

So far the incidences I came to know like this have similar pattern. There is something wrong with the application itself that didn't allow them to complete data entry - like wrong occupation code. One strange case had lawyer banned from bar council who reprented the case. I would recommend you to push your lawyer hard to create an inquiry for DOL on the case. Its \likely that they may close your case if you don't act proactively.
 
statistics for case no P-05221-92000 to P-05221-92999

I ran my program to see case status for case number between P-05221-92000 and P-05221-92999, here is the result:

Total cases(P-05221-92XXX): 330

In Process: 268
Data Review: 4
Certified: 3
Denied: 1
Closed: 33
Appeal: 0
Withdrawn: 21

We can see, actually, there are only 330 valid case numbers between this range. I am supprised to see there are 3 certified cases in this range, since my PD is 3/2005. I really want to know how they group case number :)
 
I am with you

Please see page 27, of the recently released internal I140 manual by USCIS at http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/afm_ch22_091206R.pdf

This should make the policy crystal clear. It states the following:

"In those cases where the alien’s priority date is established by the filing of the labor certification, once the alien’s Form I-140 petition has been approved, the alien beneficiary retains his or her priority date as established by the filing of the labor certification for any future Form I-140 petitions, unless the previously approved Form I-140 petition has been revoked because of fraud or willful misrepresentation. This includes cases where a change of employer has occurred; however, the new employer must obtain a new labor certification if the classification requested requires a labor certification"

To left over guys

Hi everyone,
It looks like that PBEC following either PD days nor sequence number, is it possible that they are following the date of issuing 45-day letter or receiving 45-day letter? I'm thinking if this is the possiblity they are putting the early confirmed cases at the bottom of the boxes, and therefore they are processing them in the last groups? let's check and compare this, maybe we can find some clues.
 
These possibilites have all been discussed on long ago. It's not possible to tell their method accurately.
