-Dibesh: Q: Please help me out. How long it will take to get duplicate labor certification. I concurrently file I-140, I-485, travel document and work permit all in hold beacuse of i have only copy of my labor certification. It's been almost one year. I am just waiting. A: You will never get your duplicate labor certification, DOL never issues any duplicate labor certification even it is lost in mail or is lost after you received it. I am not sure what your lawyers are saying, and they are holding you for this. You can invoke FOIA from DOL. Or there is another way where you can file your subsequent docs for your GC. Please email me at laborperm@gmail.com Also please be advised, I cannot run my service for free. There is no fixed rate for my service - I am dedicated in helping poor children in Nepal via Save_The_Children. Part of my income goes to this organization.
