DOL automated status issue - please help!

[yesnow]

IMMIHELP,

The local SESA forwarded my application to the DOL a few weeks ago. I checked the DOL status line and unfortunately obtained a response indicating that "this file could not be located.". Then I called the DOL and was told that the automated system was updated over the weekend and that all files had been loaded (regardless of their status). I don't know if the case numbers are manually inputed, but if so there could have been a typo.

According to the DOL person, I could fax a formal request for a status update on my file but the process could be significantly delayed. Then again if I don't and the file didn't make for some reason to the DOL... I could wait forever.

In your experience what is advisable? Have you heard of similar cases? Perhaps I should wait... but how long?

Thanks for your assistance.

Good news,

The DOL has fixed the automated system problem, case numbers are now being properly recognized. This was quick, hopefully so will the rest of the process.

Good luck to all of you outhere.

DOL case number

Hi
Where did you get your case number at DOL? from DOL office or attorney. My case was forwarded to DOL 4 weeks back. Please let me know how to get case number.

Thanks in advance
