March 23 2016 – The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) “has received reports from members regarding intermittent iCERT outages and slowness, as well as delays at DOL in processing Labor Condition Application (LCA) FEIN verifications. AILA has alerted DOL to these concerns and will provide updates as they are received.
In the meantime, some members have reported receiving an FEIN verification by the time the LCA is adjudicated, even where the system displays a warning to enter a “valid FEIN” when the LCA is submitted and no e-mail communication is received from DOL confirming the FEIN has been verified. Where possible, members should submit FEIN verifications as far in advance as possible, particularly for cases subject to the H-1B cap.”
We are glad to tell our clients that we have fortunately secured most of the LCAs on time.
