485 Days 😉
i485 pending for 485 days… Well done UCIS. Hang in there people. Stay distracted and please don’t let this process overwhelm you and spill into other aspects of your life. Worrying definitely doesn’t help UCIS move faster so take back control of your heart and mind (even if it means not being addicted to lawfully like I was at some point😩). Utilize sites like Udemy, Cousera etc for personal development. Volunteer, find someone who’s career/business you’re interested in to shadow so you’re ready to hit the ground running once you get your approval. Stay strong! It is well!!
Make a plan on how to proceed and implement it!!

RFE
Hi Guys,
Please if someone could shad some light on it or had a similar experience. Today I received my RFE notice, that I was expecting to be for the medical exams, which was but not only this. They are also requesting the translated birth certificates and proof of legal presence. We sent the birth certificates and proof of legal presence with the 485 package. Why might they be asking them again? They say in the letter that if there is no I94 available, they can accept the passport stamps with a written explanation about why we don’t have I94. My husband and I have I94 but not my kids due to an error from the DHS, but obviously they have the stamped passports. Is there any formal letter template to answer this? I mean, I imagine it should be something very formal and in law style. Had anyone have a similar experience? Could you please share your experience? Thank you
Estimated time until case decision : 2 months
I know I shouldn’t be too excited since a lot of you reported that we really shouldn’t trust those estimated times from USCIS but after some time any change brings some hope that it might be over soon …

expedite request
does anyone no if you can make a expedite request on a I-485 because it is taking so long. (waaaay out of processing times but USCIS doesn’t care)
my PD is 8/17/2021, I just sent a case inquiry and they said to expect my decision in 6 months.
I am going to look into mandemus, if anyone knows of a good lawyer that accepts payment plan, please leave it in the comments. thank you everyone.
Got approved after getting interview cancelled on the same day
After waiting for 3 months after attending my interview with no updates after it. I finally got an update in the morning today on my i485 saying my interview was canceled, and i130 became actively reviewed which confuse me. Luckily later at 6pm the same day, I got an update from app saying my case got approved.
The waiting is finally over and I hope all people here who is still waiting will receive your approval notification soon.
