Philadelphia Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

Wrong!!!!

Your assumption is wrong. My case ( DOL RD of 10/2003) is listed in the FLCdatacenter and my lawyer received the 45 day letter from BEC with reply requested to be returned to BEC. (see my signature below for details).

It looks like all the cases received in Philly regional office before Dec. 2003, got retained in the regional office. One of my colleagues informed that, all the cases that are shown in the flc data archive are actually opened cases by Philly regional office and they will be processed out side BEC. I am not sure if this is correct, but based on the dates on 45 day letters, it appears that all people whose applications opened by Philly office (recd dt prior to Dec 2003) not received any letters form BEC.

Old devil is safer than new god :). Keep Waiting with more patience. also post if you have any contact information to reach Philly Regional office

For those who were not able find their case details on

http://archive.flcdatacenter.com/casesearchperm.asp

try downloading the full 32md archive file, open it in a textpad and search for you case#, employee name, zip etc etc.

hi

Here is what I have gleened, but just to answer a previous question - you don't have a DOL Case Number right now because you had not been inputted in to the system when they transferred you to the backlog reduction unit in Philadelpia.

They are processing applications in FIFO order based on your Local Office Date ie when you were filed in Florida - not when you were received by the Department of Labor. They have separated the applications in to 2 tiers. Traditional & RIR Labor Cert so you still get priority.

Their main focus right now is Data Entry for all the cases that have been transferred. Right now they have 60000 cases entered and many more are waiting to be entered. That is all they did until January. At the beginning of January they started sending out the 45 days letters for cases filed prior to 2003. So far they have sent 26,000 letters. I cannot tell yet when I would get one for you, but it's not going to be in the immediate future.

Any processing dates they now have posted on their web site are inaccurate as is the information retrieval system (ie the tone talker with the exception of Boston & New York). They are working on a system right now to give accurate processing dates.

Right now they cannot give accurate information until all the applications are entered which will be later this year.

Hop this information helps. Is it as much as they will give us right now.

New Jersey Transfer

Any news about transferring of New Jersey cases from State Centers to the Backlog Elimination Centers?.. My lawyer said that so far his office did not receive any of the 45 days notice. Even though my application is filed in the mid of 2004, I know pending NJ cases from May 2002 who did not get the 45 days letter. So, if anybody from NJ gets the 45 days letter, please reply.

Voicemail means that someone is on the phone (instead of busy signal, you get voice mail). Just try it again and again, you will speak someone live.

Hello Guys !!! Can someone answer my question

My CASE details are

PD : OCT-31-2002 (VA)
RD : JULY 2004 (Phil DOL)
EB2 - RIR

Haven't received love letter yet. I've called my lawyer and she says that not all the cases will be transeferred to BEC and some will be processed by Phil DOL depending upon opened vs un-opened. Is this true??

When my case is at SWA i've recvd a query. Is it because of this i did not get the letter. I've seen people who filed after me and along with me received the love letter.

Is NOF is same as query.

Thanks

I have the same question. I received a query from SWA. Is this why I haven't received my BEC 45-day letter yet?

Legal Action against DOL

Hi Guys,

I think we all agree that DOL is unfair in making us wait for atleast another year but getting ready to approve the PERM applications filed after March 28th. Some of us think that legal action is the only way to let DOL know that this is unfair and they would have to process the backlogged applications before they start processing the PERM ones. May be the DOL thought that once PERM is in place lot of us would convert to PERM but my attorney told me that its not a good idea to do it especially if its filed under EB3.

All I am asking is think about this for a moment. We need lot of support to get this going. I am thinking we atleast have 100000 people waiting for their labor and if we each contribute $100, we could raise a million dollars. That should be suffiicient to hire an attorney and start the legal proceedings. If I am totally wrong and I am missing something, please do let me know and I would be the happiest person on the Earth if I am gonna get this thing done without any fuss.

I have started a new thread at http://boards.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=160354 for this purpose. I created a poll to gauge the interest of the fellow forum members in this matter. Please take a moment to vote so that we would know how many people are interested.
