+ # Agency Processing Time History: free sample (Tensorust LLC)
28
+
29
+ Six years of DOL labor certification processing times (PERM, prevailing wage, H-2A, H-2B) that DOL overwrites every month: 78 monthly snapshots, 19,788 published values.
30
+
31
+ **Headline:** Every immigration practice quotes PERM and prevailing wage timelines, but DOL overwrites its processing-times page each month and keeps no archive, so nobody can show a client the trend.
32
+
33
+ This repository is a **free teaser**, not the dataset. It holds 25 example rows and a summary table with no names in it. The full file has **19,788 rows** and is sold by Tensorust LLC: **[https://tensorust.com/datasets/agency-processing-time-history/](https://tensorust.com/datasets/agency-processing-time-history/)**.

94
+ Email **mattbusel@tensorust.com** with the tier and a billing contact, and we will send a proper invoice (ACH or card). The file is delivered once the invoice is paid. Details and the live sample: [https://tensorust.com/datasets/agency-processing-time-history/](https://tensorust.com/datasets/agency-processing-time-history/). All datasets: https://tensorust.com/datasets/
95
+
96
+ ## Method and limits
97
+
98
+ Fetch one Wayback capture per month (the first successful capture in each month) plus the live page. Parse every HTML table, attach the nearest heading above it, flatten multi-row headers, and write each cell as one value with its row and column labels. A 'Month YYYY' value becomes value_month and backlog_months (snapshot month minus that month); plain numbers go to value_number. series_id joins program, table, row and column so a series can be followed across snapshots, though DOL has renamed some rows over the years.
99
+
100
+ Not USCIS, State Department or FCC data (those sites block automated clients or have no archive history; they are not in this file). Not a forecast of any one case. Wayback captures can fall on any day of the month, and DOL's own update day varies. Not legal advice.
