Case Processing
485 Approval Timlines
I’m an Australian on an L1A transferring to EB1C.
I-140 and I-485 lodged concurrently on 18 September 2024. I-140 approved on 20 October 2025. So far, I-485 has been in progress for 14 months, with no update since December 2024. It’s still at NBC.
Any ideas on if this timeframe is to be expected or if I should do anything to follow up?
grateful
I’m overjoyed that I’m at this part of my journey. I really cannot say the process was difficult . married December and got approved before our anniversary, no RFE, no lawyer. I’m therefore passing the baton on to all the persons who are in waiting. may you have the strength to continue in this season. I have learnt that everyone’s journey will be different so stay focused and use what you have until you get what you want. ✌🏾

My ex wife physically abused me 4 years ago and caught a felony case that night for it. I was evaluated from a VAWA center saying I was battered. I did have a violation of protective order felony 7 years ago, and a DUI dismissal 2 years ago. how is this possible? after waiting for more than 3 years.. this is one of the worst days in my life 😔

can you help me?
I logged into my USCIS account, and under I-485, I saw this notification: "Error retrieving case status
We are having trouble retrieving your case status. Try again later." Does anyone know what this is?
My husband also has a similar notification under I-130.
