It took 690 days from filing the I-485 to approval, and about 2 months after filing the WOM.

Post interview inquiry 120 days.
I had my I-485 interview on April 28, 2026. The officer advised that they expected to make a decision within 120 days and that I could submit an inquiry if no decision was received.
After the 120-day mark, my attorney submitted a status inquiry. Lawfully now shows: “Correspondence Was Received And USCIS Is Reviewing It.”
For anyone who had a similar update after a post-interview inquiry: How long did USCIS take to act on the inquiry? If your case moved afterward, how many days/weeks did it take to receive a decision?

My lawyer submitted my Vawa package with EAD application and advanced parole on the 09/14/2023 and the only update I got on those were ( biometrics, RFE for good moral character and about 6 prima facie.
I ending up watching a few YouTube videos as how to file a different EAD because it's been over 2 years since that one was pending. I watched the video and I did filed and submit one myself on the 08/28/2025 and sent to USIS field office and they responded with I-765 received. One year and 16 days later the one I sat in the garage and did by myself was the one that got approved on the 14th day of September 2026 the same exact date I filed my Vawa petition 3 years ago.
we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us ❤️🙏🏾
my EAD approval felt like I won the lottery tbh 🥹🥹
