Medical Expiration
Happy Monday everyone
My PD is 2/13/2021. Do you guys think I will see any movement in April?
Also, I had submitted my I-693 in December 2022 which makes my medical record more than 2years. Should I just wait until I hear anything from USCIS or do exam and wait to send it?
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated ✌️
Good morning everyone, I'm here still waiting on my decision on my I485. I'm praying for everyone as you pray for me. our day is coming. No timing like God timing.
I'm just trusting in God.

I am just grateful that there is hope after an abusive relationship and you are not left hanging. The Lord will restore the years the canker worm has eaten. Focusing on the present and holding on to hope.

Thank You Jesus!
I would get on here so often and see people get approved. Saturday morning I received my approval letter though my status has not updated. II knew my day would come. Thank you so much Jesus for letting our i-30 get approved 🙏🏿. You are so Amazing God! You make everything beautiful in it's time. To the person reading this and waiting, be strong. I'm praying for you. it took 485 days. My priority date was December 17th 2023.

Approval!
got my I-485 approval on 3/15. sharing timeline below in case it helps.
9/11/2024 - I-140 and I-485 received.
9/25/2024 - I-140 approved (premium processing)
10/7/2024 - biometrics appointment.
10/8/2024 - case status changed to being “actively reviewed”
2/21/2025 - case transferred to non local field office (Santa Ana) as per Emma.
3/14/2025 - received an email as “an action has been taken on your case” but there was no update in the account.
3/15/2025 - received an identical email , logged in and saw the status as approved . a courtesy notice was also available for download in the documents tab .
some relevant information:
1. received notice for both myself and my spouse on the same day. still waiting for dependent child.
2. Category - EB1-C. country of origin - India.
3. priority date 12/22/2014 (from previous I-140 submitted through EB2).
4. previously the priority date was set as receipt date ie 9/11/2024 instead of 12/22/2014. I submitted a typographical error service request to correct the priority date.
5. Lawfully didn’t have any status update and still shows as pending after more than 30 hours since the approval noted in the portal.
6. I regularly checked the usciscaseext.com - it gave a very good indicator of how many applications within your block were processed and total percentage of applications approved.
7. I was just lucky that the field office approved in about 3 weeks. Most field offices take 2-8 weeks to make a decision.
8. I did not receive any RFE . submitted our birth certificates (in English fortunately since country of origin is India) and medical exam I-693 along with the 485 application l.
9. in case it’s relevant , we did not have our infant take Covid vaccine. However, USCIS no longer requires COVID vaccine to be taken by applicants.
please feel free to ask me any questions. I am happy to answer based on my experience.
