PERM processing time 2022 (Archive)

Hi, with the current situation at the processing centers, is it a good idea to file both I140 & 485 concurrently or separately?

It’s depends if your priority date is current

My PD is current and it March 2010

Someone suggested, that concurrent filing will go to Texas center which is really slow. Separate filing will go to Nebraska, which is better.

My PD is current, however my employer changed (that’s why I have been waiting for PERM). Should I push for concurent or i-140 separate to capture the priority date from previous filing?

How long does it take for DOL to respond after Audit RFE response?

sagarchetty · January 12, 2022, 8:33pm

When I click on Estimate PERM approval time on this website, I get this " You should have received your case approval by now. Check with your employer if they have received any Audit inquiry from DOL". What does this mean ? can Anyone help please. Thanks !

I am getting the same message. Based on the date what we provided and the data what this app has, it is throwing that message. So you should be checking with your attorney on the status.

Is it like the app/website throws this generic message for all application which are being processed in current month (in my case it is Aug 2021) ?

The app tries to find an estimated date of approval for your case based on the current trend and the cases shared by other users.

If the app says that your case should have been approved by now, it means that your case can be approved anytime now.

Hi Anil,

My PERM application will be filed today. I had a question regarding expected time of approval. When can i expect the approval to come?

Also, under what situations do people get an audit/RFE? Is it random?
What percentage of people actually end up getting audit?

Thanks

Hey,
You can just follow the below page for your queries, also if you had filed this month, you can expect your perm approval by Jun 22.

File separately with premium.

Nebraska is always much faster…

You had mentioned under “Fastest PERM approval” that a case with receipt date Sep 19 2021 was already approved. Now you have removed that from the page https://www.am22tech.com/uscis/perm-processing-time/

May I know the reason?

Hi Friends, My PERM filing date is 4/8/2021 but received audit on 9/16/2021 and audit response submitted on 10/14/2021 and the case is still pending . My H-1B max out time is Mar 4, 2022. So what are chances for me to get the PERM /I-140 completed on time so my employer can file the 7th year H1 extension. . Planning to leave USA in 3 week of FEB if I dont have I-140 submitted by then . Any suggestions or options for me please ?

TempAkr · January 25, 2022, 4:08pm

I think DOL is taking longer times to respond to audit response. In my case I am still waiting for decision for the audit response submitted on Oct 15, 2021
