SESA
is the State Employment Security Agency
and is the first step in labor certification/RIR.
The second step is processing by the
US Department of Labor (USDOL); USDOL
processing times are separate and
in addition to SESA processing.
* Processing times
can vary considerably from month to month. We update these
charts as numbers become available.
