Case Approved
2 - I129 APPROVAL NOTICES
I got my 1st H1B approval dated in the timeline below.
On Feb-11, the status changed to "Your application has been approved" and I received 2nd I797A in mail today.
Both the I797A has different date as "Notice date"
IS THIS COMMON FROM USCIS?

I got approved without an interview
I just wanted to share with those who are still waiting or need some information about timelines.
I didn’t have any RFE, didn’t expedite and didn’t have any interview. Marriage based, Brooklyn filer with pd of March 11, 2021.
Good luck everyone! Wish you all to get approved and get your GC!

Expedite request for AP, but probably got EAD approved as well!
Expedited for Advance Parole on Friday. Got notification on expedite approval on AP case, and few hours later card being produced on EAD case. I believe it should be a combo card. I can’t believe it was so fast. Thank God!!

Approval notice received
Approval notice says that I485 was approved. However, it also has some standard text saying:
“Prior to receiving your permanent resident card you may be required to report for biometrics processing. Please do not take any action at this time.”
Is that just a generic approval notice text? I already went through biometrics in the very beginning. Thanks!
My case status says “Card Was Mailed To Me”.
