Hi,
Just wanted to know what is the criteria for EB2 labor certification. Is it just experience/education or are there are any designation restrictions too? If anyone has more information pls to e-mail me at janikatta@gmail.com.
Thanks, Jani

My company says it is very difficult to get my labor approved because I joined the company fresh after doing my Masters in Ind. engineering.
Did any of you face the same problem?
They also said that PERM is very difficult to get approved as it asks for for ads through more media than the regular process.

I started my process of transition from H1B to permanent residency by filing with DOL in August of 2001 for a Labor Certification. It is now October of 2004 and as of yet of heard nothing. My company and I have spent over $25,000 in legal fees on this process to date and yet nothing. I am from Canada, run a very successful business in Seattle, pay a tremendous amount in tax, and yet can't get this process completed so that my family, kids in particular can work. I have 4 children, ages 15-20, what am I teaching them of this great country when they feel handcuffed by a process that is beyond ridiculous. Frustrated, you bet!

A friend of mine's despeerate. He lives in Maryland. His sponsor filed the correct paperwork with the USDOL in New York. Papers were entered before APril 30, 2001. Is this delay in obtaining certification normal? My friend wants to bring his wife of 20 years and 3 children and is concerned that now his almost 21 year old son may not qualify for the visa when the time comes. He wants to know how long after labor certification is granted and immigration procedures begin, can he estimate on his family being granted a visa to come and join him. What's worse, his wife applied recently to the US consulate overseas for a visa to visit the US and she was denied the visa due to the consulate finding of her husband's 245-i process in the US.

I submitted my Labor November last year. I received a call from my lawyer that the State Agency approved the Labor and submitted it to the Regional Office. It's been more than a year and The regional office is still processing.
I wonder how long it will take to get the approval of my labor certification. At this time, the web site is posting they are processing December. Oh Man !!!
