Philadelphia TR-RIR Approval Tracker

I strongly believe that the ones that have got through happened to be in a stack that was picked up by the PBEC staff for working on, and they likely got swamped by something else before they could move to another stack of the RIR conversion packages. Its unlucky to be still stuck, but I am confident you should see movement soon.

In my case, attorney received PWD after submitting RIR package on Mar 30th (to meet deadline). So, they are working on second round of recruiting efforts.
Could be the same reason for those still "In Process". Check with your HR or attorney.

Here are some numbers:

Total Cases Tracked: 31

My TR-RIR Package was sent in 1st week of April 2007 and on May 1st the webseite showed the status as RIR - INPROCESS. My PDate is March 2005. Is there any idea how long it takes for the decision.?

If you review the tracker, you'll see that the longest it has taken is 21 days. However, average is about 7-13 days. Expect it anytime now...

Something similar here. 17 calendar days and have not received the paper certification yet! What with my PD becoming current, it better
arrive by June 1;)

I know quiet a few in my company who have received theirs in a week. Attorney says will enquire on Monday.
Dunno if that enquiry has any meaning. As per my past experience BEC enquiry is like shouting at a wall !
 
My status showed Certified today.
Wait for the paper work now.
Thanks to everyone for providing the infos and special thanks to ma_nonrir_eb3 for maintaining the tracker.

Now what I'll do is to crossing my fingers for the visa bulletin to move forward.:cool: :cool:

Very true, BEC's are very random, and getting through to them in terms of communication can be tough. However, there's no harm in trying. Do let us know the outcome of your lawyer's enquiry on Monday.
