my company applied labor certification exactly a month back. I have no clue whats happenning. when it was applied, my employer gave me  registration number but told me that only employer or attorney can see the status of it.

Does anybody know how to check its status? thanks.

ceeramic, I think your company might have to document all these interviews and make a report including the reasons for why those candidates were not hired. Normally, DOL does not ask all these documents but if your company has to go through Audit then they might want to see everything. Most attorneys want the HR of the company to prepare a report so that if the case gets audited, they have everything covered. Talk to your attorney.

karmayogi, I would call my attorney to check the status instead of checking it myself. Normally attorneys check these status every morning and will let you know once it is decided. If you want to check it by yourself then you can go to: www.plc.doleta.gov . The best way is to be patience and wait.

summit,

thanks for your response. But when i open website you refer, it prompts with warning. I wonder only employer or attorney can only access this website. I will try to get reply from my employer. on the meanwhile, waiting is the only option I have. my consultancey(employer) applied Labor certification for me. Some employee already got approval and some on the way.  By the way I am working with them for 1 year.But I don't know whether they have advertised for the post or not?

Could anyone tell me what reason might be behind getting no news from DOL for more than 6 months regarding labor cert. from NYC? My guesses are :

A. There were querries but Attorney did not inform you.

B. Backlog due to high volume of applicants.

C. Other reason/s which you might know.

Or, is this the normal period if you have applied in NY ?

Pls suggest.

What might be the reason behind not hearing anything from DOL for more than 6 months ? This was applied in NY.

Can anyone have a clue ?

Thanks.
