Case Processing
How long does it take the officer to make a decision after a RFE response is sent?
I got a RFE on my EB2-NIW I485 asking for a Supplement J. Although I think it was a mistake by the officer my attorney insisted submitting the form so we just filed it last Fri.
How long does it usually take for the officer to check the RFE response and make the decision? My case has been pending for about 90 days now. I have a layoff coming up so I’m anxious. It’s Newark FO.
Question on travel while waiting for greencard
I am on H1B status and I have my AP / travel permit, so I can travel out of the country. What happens if my greencard gets approved shortly before my flight back to the US? Can I still use my H1B or AP to enter the country? (given that it takes 1-2 weeks for greencard to arrive)
thank you in advance!!
Lawfully grouped me 257/358 —> 8/18 & now 1/1. how accurate?
Vawa i360 was approved Dec 2024 & i485 was receivd May2025. None of my cases had RFE or interviews & I sent i693 with i485. I did biometrics Sept 2025 & case was transferred from Nebraska to Vermont since then.Lawfully grouped me 257-358 in March 2026 & then 8/18 since April started & now a week ago I became 1/1 . how long till I can expect approval ? I know these are just ball park predictions but anyone with similar experience can tell me if the ranking was accurate for them ?
