Re: Labor Certification
If I understand your question correctly, you asking how long does it take before a Labor Certification is approved by the department of labor? This depends on whether one files it via the RIR program for regular processing.
RIR, in Northern California, typically takes 4 to 6 months. If you are forced to file via regular processing, it can take anywhere from 2-5 years.
