My PERM was certified yesterday after 12 months and 2 weeks. That used to take 6 months.

I'm now backlogged until October which never used to happen at all to ROW (rest of world excluding India and China) applicants.

My PERM was certified in August. Took a little over 16 months because it went to audit. Timelines on PERM shot up around the same time as I applied and have been steadily getting worse.

Filed I-485 in November, approved in 4 months and a week. So once your date comes up, they seem to be moving quickly.

It changes over time. My spouses PERM took 4 years.

That seems excessive. Just PERM or PWD, recruiting and PERM?
