Filed June 2025
10,994 applications carry a June 2025 filing date. 10,477 have a decision. 517 were still waiting when the scan last checked.
Anything undecided here is read from DOL’s own case-status search, in batches, every 12 hours. That page is also the authority for any single case. Because it is a sweep rather than a live reading, a case decided between sweeps still counts as waiting here, so these backlog figures run a little high rather than a little low.
Where this month sits
DOL publishes November 2025 as the filing month its analyst review is working as of August 28, 2026, so it has worked past June 2025. Anything still open here is behind the main queue rather than waiting for its turn.
2,352 cases filed before June 2025 were undecided at their last check, so that’s what sits in front of this month, counting only cases DOL still has to decide. Some will have been decided since, so it runs a little high. It isn’t divided into a wait: the timeline calculator gives the envelope, from the spread of cases DOL has actually decided.
Still pending
39 of them are in analyst review, the ordinary queue that moves in filing order. The rest are in queues that take a case out of that order, so their wait doesn’t follow the month.
- Analyst review 39 the ordinary queue, worked in filing order
- Out of filing order 113 an information request, an audit, supervised recruitment or a hold takes a case off the ordinary queue
- Under appeal or review 365 cases that went to appeal after an adverse determination
