Myvisajobs.com's data center is now partially in sync with iCERT Visa Portal, the system run by Department of Labor to approve foreign labor certifications. Every day, our system adds or updates thousands of certifications filed by U.S. employers. 

When you search H1B visa jobs on myvisajobs.com, do not forget to pick one of the following case statuses to get desired results:

The case status might change at any time during working hours. Due to the large number of cases in our system, we could not update all of them in real time. So we add a link on certification page to help you get real time status update. 

On the top of every labor certification page, just click on "Get Real Time Case Status Update" link, our system will "shake hand with" the ICERT system and return with current case status.
