Hi friends, I filed a writ of mandamus lawsuit for my asylum-based I-485. My application has been pending for 700 days. The government attorney requested a 45-day extension. Is that a good sign?

taxes
Hey, I wanted to share something that’s been on my mind. My abuser and I haven’t lived together for three years. I hire a tax prep guy who knows we aren’t together, that I make all the income, and have my child who lives 24/7. We’re legally married though. He said he would claim me as head of household and told me it wouldn’t be an issue because of the situation. But when I checked the transcripts, for the last three years he’s been listing me as unmarried head of household. I read online that this is correct since we’re separated and child lives with me, but I’m worried USCIS might see it as a problem. Just wanted to get your thoughts on this. if I should adment my taxes or find another tax guys since it’s kinda shady
Reentry
I’m currently outside of the US, my green card will expire in 2 weeks and I have applied for the I-751 to have my condition removed. I do not have my physical receipt notice, I only have access to the online PDF version. CBP states you may re-enter the US with the expired green card and Receipt notice, would I be denied boarding if I printed this receipt notice out and presented at the airport?
marriage green card
Had my marriage-based green card interview yesterday. ( June 4 ) The officer separated my spouse and me immediately and was pretty tough throughout the interview.( from a banned country and ik the banned is lifted now ) At the end, he said he believes our marriage is legitimate, but that he plans to send an RFE (Request for Evidence) within about 2 weeks before making a final decision.
We answered all questions consistently and provided a lot of evidence, but he seemed concerned about the low activity in our joint bank account.
How common is it to get an RFE after the interview instead of an approval?
For those who received a post-interview RFE, what evidence did USCIS ask for?
I’m trying not to panic while waiting for the letter and would appreciate hearing others’ experiences.😭
Federal Judge Strikes Down Trump Administration’s 39 Country Travel Ban..
The judge has ordered USCIS to resume the processing of immigration applications filed by people from the 39 countries who were affected by Trump’s travel ban, as well as asylum applications.
Judge McConnell also invalidated a USCIS policy that required immigrants from countries on the Trump administration’s travel ban list—who had already been approved for immigration benefits after entering the United States after 2021—to undergo a second review of their cases. The judge rejected the government’s argument that these additional screenings and country-based evaluations were necessary for national security, finding that the policy lacked sufficient legal justification….
EB1-B I485 Approved
Finally approved. I had to submit a case inquiry a month ago, and also my local Congressman's office started an inquiry just yesterday night. And today morning the case was approved.
After becoming current, I was waiting for 6 months. The case status showed that my case was pending, as a visa number was unavailable. This is why we decided to submit a case inquiry. And that might have helped.

Any approvals?
Has anyone from one of the 75 restricted countries received an EB-2 NIW I-140 approval recently?
If yes, could you please share:
- Country of chargeability
- Premium or regular processing
- Filing date
- Approval date
I'm trying to see whether the recent restrictions are having any impact on EB-2 NIW I-140 adjudications.

Breaking News:
A Federal judge has struck down the adjudicative pause or hold on the 39 countries nation wide. The court found that USCIS cannot indefinitely stop processing immigration benefits by law and ordered the challenged policies to be vacated.
This is good news for the 39 countries. USCIS is expected to comply with this ruling effective immediately!
