How is your productivity at work while waiting?
I have tried it all. Deleted tracking apps but installed them after a few days. Tried not looking at them thinking notifications will be good enough but always go back to opening them 3-4 times per day (not to check the status but to see the forum). I think my productivity at work has decreased by 30% with this frustrating i485 wait.
How are you folks maintaining your sanity? Is it affecting your productivity?
Thank you God, Mother Mary and all the Saints! 🙏🏻 Keep the faith and your approval will come soon!
My journey took 10months - Honestly, I got approved when I stopped checking and put my time/attention to something else. I understand that it’s emotionally draining.
I did upload some files online- ex. updated ID’s, and Sevis (for F1)
Don’t overdo it.
I’m getting married again in church this year so it is really a big year for me and I believe prayers helps me so much.
I did novenas and I got approved the day after I finished it. It worked! 🙏🏻
