EB1A approval
My timeline dated back to 2021 when I submitted my EB2-NIW ROW. It was denied and subsequently submitted another essentially the same EB2-NIW, which was approved. However, the priority date at the time would not become current before hitting the 6 year limit of my H1B (I am a researcher in science and technology). Other visas were not an option for me. I took a financial gamble by porting to EB1 and here I am.
These last 5 years Lawfully and members kept me updated and my hopes high. I wish everyone the best of luck!

Employment Based i-485 timeline
hi All, my company has filed employment based i-485 along with i-131 and i-765, receipt was generated on 11th June 2025, block number IOE-09-324, its been 36 days and still no update, is there any similar case of IOE-09-324 block, and did you get to schedule biometrics appt OR under processing?
Any VAWA approval from February, 2022?
Greetings everyone, I hope you are doing well.
I’m checking to see if anyone who filed a VAWA petition around February 2022 or any others, has received any updates or approval yet. Mine is still pending, and I’m getting a bit anxious with the long wait.
If you filed around the same time and have received a decision (approval, RFE, etc.), please share your timeline or any updates. It would be really helpful for those of us still waiting.
Thank you and best wishes to everyone going through this process!

I can’t wait till they give a decision
all this waiting is just crazy.. this is the second case bc the first one we had since 2022.. was denied the 485 only due to forgetting a waiver 601 or smth like that :( while all the other forms had approvals, including I-130😒 but then had to restart it all over bc of one simple mistake. paid even more money this time and this time the GC is needed urgently due to college reasons. I just wish USCIS could hurry

Hi everyone! 👋
I received my I-140 approval on May 14, 2025 ✅
I had already filed my I-485 on February 23, 2024 🗓️
On June 2, 2025, I got an RFE for the medical report , which was sent and received by USCIS on June 13, 2025
Based on your experience, when should I expect approval for my I-485?
I’d really appreciate hearing your timelines or any similar cases 🙏
IMPORTANT // AOS & TAX DOCS FOR NVC
*** UPDATE 2: OUR SUBMISSION WAS REJECTED AGAIN! What for? Oh, my W2 form was attached to the same file as the I-864. Looks like we will wait another 2 weeks! This is a joke…
*** UPDATE 1: Today (19 Jul 2025), I submitted my resubmissions to NVC. I also want to note that Form 1040 is what we needed to submit, not the Form 1099. NVC requested a 1099 from us, but we do not have this, as we didn’t have extra income that was not wages from our employers. I hope everything will be correct this time. I will continue to update this post!
17 Jul 2025
Hi everyone. I am making this post to share my current situation after submitting the required AOS/tax docs to NVC.
What I submitted:
• Form I-864
• Form I-864A
• 2024 tax returns for myself as well as my joint sponsor
• Proof of relationship to joint sponsor (a birth certificate)
The submissions were partially rejected.
Reasons why:
• Each form needs to be submitted with every page included, even if some are blank.
• Regarding tax returns, I personally submitted my 1040 from 2024. This was accepted! However, my joint sponsor submitted their tax return account transcript for 2024. Apparently this was rejected? Don’t ask me why lol. So, I am having my joint sponsor obtain their 1040 for 2024 instead. But we will still resubmit with both (account transcript and 1040).
• They also requested W-2 forms from both me and my joint sponsor. So we will submit those also.
I just wanted to write this post to make everyone aware so that a hold-up like this could be avoided. :)
