next step after biometrics
I have seen a few denials for greencard after vawa approval and I am becoming a bit nervous. For all those that encouraged me to go for biometrics and not panic, I want to specifically thank you. That went well. I was hoping if anyone who has gone through same process of second biometrics after vawa approval could comment on what came next after that.
i485 JSON data shows something was updated yesterday (IFA event),
Hi everyone, I’m a little confused and hoping for guidance.
My I-485 JSON data shows something was updated yesterday (IFA event), even though my case status didn’t change. Has anyone else had this happen? What did it lead to?
Not sure if this means an officer reviewed my case or if it’s normal system activity.
"eventCode": "IFA",
"eventDateTime": "2025-06-20",
"createdAt": "2025-08-25T16:47:00.409Z",
"updatedAt": "2025-11-13T12:40:09.529Z"
RFE came for I-485 Supplement J for my EB-1A self petition (no job offer required)
Today, RFE was sent for my I-485 Supplement J for my EB-1A Self-petition (no job offer required) and case status was “RFE was sent” after 30-40 mins status changed to “Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS” Nothing outstanding is required at this time.
Is this something unusual? Do I need to respond to that RFE?
what are the best possible options in this scenario?
online account, RFE doc is there in documents tab and online account showing rfe is still active but status is actively reviewing by USCIS.
