Cases in National Benefits Center ?
Hello everyone! is there anybody else that has their case in NBC? How are their processing times? What is the accurate filing date they’re working on? They waved my biometrics because I already had another process with them, I have SSN and work authorization. I saw a video of a girl that was approved in a month!!! that’s insane how fast some of them were approved so fast and I see many of you guys waiting for so long! I hope we all get an approved notification soon!
how long for I-485 approval after I-130 approval?
it has been 122 days since they approved my I-130. I also have I-601. any thoughts on my case on how long it is going to take? anyone in a similar situation?

Almost 10 months after, EB-1A I-140 is approved. Self-petitioned. No premium processing. No RFE.
Profile: PhD in Philosophy, no citation, but teaches at an R1 university.
Was skeptical applying through EB-1A as I haven’t seen or heard anyone in arts (especially philosophy) getting approved. But I met about 5 criteria so I went for it.
Point is, if you think you meet more than the required 3 criteria go for it however hopeless it may seem. For those still waiting for approval, hang in there, your joy is right at the corner.
