What a count here does and doesn't mean

These are DOL's own status words, confirmed on the date above. They say where a case is, never why: a hold can be administrative, an RFI is routine, and an appeal is the employer's own filing.

This site's record of status changes began on August 27, 2026, so a hold already in place then reads “since before” that date. Decision activity shows each day's changes since.

Per-case statuses through Nov 10, 2026. How these figures are counted. Spotted an error? Tell us; every fix is dated in the corrections log.
