I received a copy of the DOL confirmation letter from my attorney this afternoon, confirming that my LCA has been certified.

For the next stage, what thread do I move on to?

Thanks!

I am still waiting to hear from INS. Application reached them on Dec31st, but they are close on that day. Application delivered on Jan3rd.

Sorry to mention this here GCin2005
One of my friends sent the papers before Dec 30 and also as per delivery status of the postal or federal office the date delivered was Dec 30. I think he got his case number some where that has been written in his check that has been deposited by INS. When he verified in the website for that case number, the result in web page was showing January 6th as received date!
He is checking with his lawyer to find what will be the actual file received date
:(

Once INS deposited the check, that is an indication they will process that case for sure. My check not deposited. I will still consider my case 60in/40out.

Do you think they will treat this as concurrent filing!!!
Because the status says that his petition received date is 01/06/2005?

I didn't locate any new approvals. Any one?

Hi, navdod,

I stopped monitoring since my case got approved. I guess you have to monitor by yourself from now on.

My case RD 6/7/04 certified on 1/14/05.

Case #

Hi azcentral,
what are the 1st 6 digits of your case #.
Mine is 09591xxx. I am not having any luck with getting a case # that was certified with a RD around June,July 04 from the AVM.
Is there a trick to doing this.

Thanks
 
Seattle DOL queue in BEC.

Here is the response I got from the BPC/BEC/BRC to the letter that I sent requesting a status.

Apparently, there are 2 queues in the BPC.
1. Non-RIR
2. RIR
And a processed in a FIFO basis based on the following criterion
Response received to 45-day letter.
PD (date app was received @ the State office) and not on RD (date app was received @ the Regional office)
The 45-day letters are issued when they enter the information into their database, apparently in the order that they were transferred to the BPC from the regional office.
I think this is bad news, because, our cases (ie; cases from the Seattle regional queue) have only been (or yet to be transferred) recently.
Not all people whose cases were transferred in oct-nov 2004 have received the 45-day letters.
The light at the end of the tunnel is yet to be seen!

Per navdod's information, it seems that the cases in Seatle queue transferred to BPC. This is really bad. We may have to wait another year or so to get our cases to be processed.
 
The AVM says that they are still processing western states with RD of Mid June 2004. The Message was recoded on 2/28. We should check tomorrow's recorded message for update

How do you find out that they are still processing western states with RD of Mid June 2004 that was updated on 2/28? I could not find out any updates after January via the AVM. My case was received in the Regional Office on Mid August 2004. I just wondered whether my case are still in DOL or in BPC.

1-415-975-4601 Option 1 , Option 1 again.
The recorded message for March 7th says , that for the remainder of the western states they are processing Applications received mid June 2004.

Its been mid june for the last 3 months. Either those cases (received in regional for western states on or after ~Jun10th) are gathering dust in the SFO DOL or they are is a pile some where in the BEC waiting to be entered into the system.
My guess is the latter (in BEC).

Its a "carrot on a stick" situation!!
We'll never get to the carrot.
 
SF DOL nightmare

Why is SFO DOL showing utter sloth in processing any LC - they aren't held up entering details into the system for BRC are they - or do the SF DOL staff fear imminent layoff if the LC queue is reduced and hence sleeping on it ! Or any other specific reason for their inaction?

traking recent approvals

Hi Guys:

I am new to the forum, one of the sufferer waiting for approval from SFO - DOL since last December. My PD July'02 and RD data 06/28/04. My state labor is from Washington state.

Does any one receive approvals for western states recently. I can see that there is movement on CA cases. But one given any update on western states.

If any one receive regional approval from SFO -DOL for western states, please post.

thanks :(
Vijay

Thanks for information. My Regional number is 09585632 RD 06/28/2004. Still waiting.

As far as I know my case (Regional number is 09591xxx RD 08/17/2004) has been transferred to Dallas BEC but no case # has been assigned and my lawyer/employer has'nt received the "45 day letter"

They must have picked a cut off date and moved all the cases from then on to the BECs. What the date is, is any one's guess. Its unresonable to expect the DOL to inform the applicant (I am being sarcastic!!)
