Hi Subba

Since you are LC Substitute case, may be ur employer did not submit original certified LC and USCIS is asking DOL about the same.

This is what I could think of USCIS asking some thing from another offcie for I140.

Good luck with your case.

Hi ,

How much it will take in general if the original labor is not submitted for 140 approval.

Thanks in advance.

newgcseeker,

To submit a I-140 Petition without the Original Labor Copy is a very tricky and dicey thing to do.Though i was lucky to get it done fairly quickly,it was nonetheless a horrible ordeal.

It takes anywhere from 3 Months to 2.5 Years(30 Months) for the DOL to respond to the USCIS Demand for Certifed Copy of Labor Certification.

Unless it is absolutely required i wouldnt advise anyone to go for this option especially with Perm Process in place now.
