PERM Processing Timelines - Give up ?

[G3SH]

Hi All,

 

I have been seeing tremendous delay in PERM approvals.

 

The DOL site was updated as Jan 11,2013 around 1st week of June.

 

As of today i see no movement to even Feb.Still some Jan cases are pending.

 

I unfortunately missed the 365 - day train and have a PD of July 2013 with only 6 more months left in visa.

 

Any hope for the processing to pick up pace ?

 

Thanks

 

Rene.

I too missed the one year train, but my attorney said the period of time you are out of US can be recaptured to compensate for filing done after 1 year period. Talk to your lawyer.

I missed my 365 day train as well. PERM filed March 2013, with a 6 year max of November 2013 (after recapture). I am going out of the US for 2-3 months and hope to come back after PERM gets approved. Atleast that would give me more time to recapture and hopefully bridge the gap between max date and 1 year pending date. Cant beleive how slow things are going for PERM processing.
