The determination expires in 13 days (2026-09-20), and a green-card filing must follow before then or the employer starts over.

Median time from filing to decision: 498 days.95% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.
