I guess that for those that have received the 45 days letter, are from NY and have PD close to the end of 2001, the approval should be close.

lawyer's reply
i enquired about status of my lca and got following reply back from my lawyer's office:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry for not responding sooner. We've looked into it and unfortunately
no processing dates have been issued, but DOL has indicated that the
Backlog Elimination Center (BEC) will process cases when they receive
them, not when they were initially filed at the DOL. BEC decided to do
this since putting the files in order would require much time and would
take time away from the actual processing of the cases. In other words,
cases are not being done in first in first out order. That's all we
know at this point.
As soon as we hear anything we will let you know.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps

That's good news indeed ... this is another NY SWA approval following others we've seen in the past several weeks, all from oct/nov/dec/2001 and now jan/2002 ... I don't wanna be too hopeful, but this could finally be FIFO for SWA cases ... if we look at the tracker, there are not many cases before those ... so let's keep our fingers crossed.
Something wrong with PBEC today
I think there is some new contractor over there who didnt read the official memo of not approving labors till 2006 and approved the 2-3 labors reported here. He will get fired for inefficiency.

For Richard
Why don't you file for your H1 extension yourself? Since it is just an extension it should be easy. Email me at desipins@hotmail.com if you need more info. This is not an ad and there is no charge involved.

45-day letter
Did any one with T-05131-07xxx or similar case number from NJ (Priority Date - 06/10/02) received their 45d letter? I received this number from PBEC 4 months back and waiting since...my colleagues with a much later priority date have already received their 45d letter and I wonder if PBEC doesn't generate letters intentionally if some one submits multiple requests for 7th year extension.

How to File Your Own Extension
As one of you who pays for annual extensions, I suggest we share our experiences on how to file own extensions. This would obviously save us lawyer fees, and as a bonus, may motivate some lawyers to question delays with the backlog elimination.
I'd be very interested to hear from yours_sincerely and others who have information/experience on filing extensions. Thank you...

For Laborious
I would be glad to share my experience but since this is not the right forum I try to divert all interested people to my email and send them the info I have through email.
Unfortunately, I do not have the time to visit other H1B related forums to share this info.
