SFO DOL - To track Auto remand Cases!!

palmapry,
If you call your local congressmen's office , they will fax/Mail you a Enquiry form to fill out.
Form has all the details i.e. date , casetype etc , In the reason column , you can suggest that you are waiting for x number of years for sloppiness on Part of DOL . you also have to attach a proof that you have actually filed with DOL (photocopy and/or screenshot etc)

Thanks for taking time to post this note, and we wish you the best in the next stages.

again, I think conversion from NON-RIR to RIR might have played important role in your approval.

My attorney keep telling me that we cant convert non-rir to RIR at this stage!! Not sure how we should do this??

All non-RIR applications might be at the end of the queue not sure when BRC might start looking into those applications! :mad:

Umm lets see.....folks who applied in our time frame are talking about applying for citizenship, and here we are stuck in the first stage aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh :confused:

Thanks goodphysq...
I remember having a discussion with my lawyers and they mentioned that any application with PD before August 2001 was eligible for a conversion from NON-RIR to RIR. Not sure if your PD is after August 2001.

Thanks

Conversion from Non-RIR to RIR

Glad to see some approvals for this group whose applications were remanded.
I am one of those unlucky people and still waiting for the labour.
PD is 08/2001
Remanded to State in 04/2003
45 Day Letter 09/2005 and responded

I understand from this thread that some people have requested for conversion from non-rir to rir, Could some one give some details on how this should be done like is a request to DOL is sufficient or should it be accompanied by the RIR re-recruitment effort (one was sent along with the application when it was filed).

One of my colleagues who was in the same boat whose PD is 06/2001, received his 45 day letter and within few weeks he got his aproval, The lawyer did not request for conversion as far as i know.

Unfortuantley my lawyer does not even know that there some thing like this ( conversion) exists, It is a Big lawfirm in the bayarea. When i point to this he told me that he has to do the recruitment effort again.

Any details would be greta help to me. Please reply.

Thanks in advance.
 
In the same boat

CA RIR/EB2
PD 08/2001
RD 10/2002
Remanded to State 06/2003(I think it is employer remanded).
45 day letter 01/2006
Replied 01/2006
no news yet.
One of my colleague with the same case details, but with a PD of 06/2001/EB3
got approval last week.

I asked my attorney about the conversion from non-rir to rir and here
is the question/reply
"Can we convert the original application from non-rir case to rir?

ANS: case filed on your behalf was originally submitted as RIR, so there is no need to convert. Although it was remanded to the State for "supervised" recruitment, the BECs have not been requiring companies to do this and have instead simply been approving as RIR."

Dont know what to do

Looks like BRC had not made any decisions on remanded cases. Who knows when they will make up thier mind :mad:

I strongly feel, converted from non-RIR to RIR cases with close to our priority date are getting approved!!

Also, some instances employer remanded cases are getting approval...

If we get one approval, then we could see many in a row - like most of us recieved 45-day letter end of last year.

Meantime, waiting continues..... :(
 
My colleague is also 06/2001/EB3, are we refering to same :)
Wish what your lawyer told is true.
My application is filed in EB2 with MS +0 or BS + 5
My case was employer remanded so does my colleagues case.
thanks for the reply.

I hope this is true, but i don't believe, bcos, there are many people in our company, all cases filed as RIR, employer remanded in 2003, 45 day letter rcvd/repld, Nov/dec 2005, no new yet....

Actually, my colleague and I applied same day (Mar 2002) and both were remanded. But his got processed as RIR (due to some goofup) and was approved a couple of weeks ago. In fact, he got his 45-day letter just 6 weeks ago .. whereas I got mine a few months ago(Jan 06). So, it does make a difference whether you were RIR or non_RIR and converting should help in this case.

Looks like employer remanded cases are gettig approved, which is good.

But, in what way does employer remanded and auto-remanded cases differ?
 
They are the same!!!

Employer remanded cases and auto-remanded cases differ in no way. The only difference should be in the job responsibility. May not be an software job, I feel.
