My LPR journey is over
I am so thankful that this journey is now over. Got approved without interview. We sent RFE for additional evidence on the 11th of April and got approved on the 19th! So just a little over a year. I wish nothing but success for all who are still going through the process.

Any suggestion? or who are in same boat
My case is based on marriage with a US citizen, and it is being processed by the National Benefits Center (NBC). I first applied for I-130, and once it was approved, I applied for l-485. I have been living in the US for 14 years. They requested an RFE related to sponsorship, which I have already submitted. It has been 30 days since I submitted it, and when I checked with them, they said my interview was waived, but I didn't send my medical.
what does this mean ?
here’s our timeline! approved without interview
approved without an interview in California field office (San Diego)! we’ve been married almost a year, but my husband has been in the US for 6 years on two work visas. he got his EAD approved the month before we got our approval. we didn’t get any email or anything, so lawfully was the first to alert me it was approved.!! the I-130 was approved first early in the morning and then tbe I-485 came through as approved later in the afternoon. we then got a notification 3 days later the card was being processed and it arrived within 3 days after that! it was a quicker and more seamless process than I anticipated. we had many sleepless nights especially without the work visa, but I promise you it’ll all come through. he hasn’t been home to his family in Brazil in 6 years so we can’t wait for that. happy to answer any questions :) stay hopeful!
