pending I-485 Struggle
Hey yall, I have a question and wanted opinions from people who might relate. My employer has been acting kind of weird lately, and I honestly feel like they might be trying to take advantage of the fact that I’m not really in a position to leave right now. They’ve done some sketchy stuff before, especially right after my OPT expired. At the time I was on CPT and they were supposed to pay for my tuition. When i asked for the reimbursement , and they never agreed to cover the full tuition, replying in the same email chain where there’s literally an email saying they would cover it. That was last year , now they’re saying they want to lower my salary to match the number from the pwd because my utilization is “low,” which really doesn’t make sense to me. I’ve been with them for about four and a half years. My overall utilization is actually above the goal they set. Even in my first year out of college, I had 80% utilization when the goal was 65%. Every year I also mentor and train three to five people, usually including two interns in the summer which lower my utilization but even with that I’m still over the goal. I checked the system and it shows the overall utilization goal during my time here was 72 %, and my actual overall utilization is 77 %. They’re acting friendly on the surface, but at the same time it feels like they know I can’t easily leave and are coming up with reasons to justify cutting my pay. Do you think that they’re actually trying to take advantage of the situation or that’s kinda normal corporate stuff#

supervisor review pending after interview
I attended my adjustment of status interview on February 2, 2026 at the Montgomery FO with my wife and our newborn child who was born in the United States.(PD: Mar,2023) At the end of the interview, the officer told me that I might receive a update by the end of the day or that a decision could be issued within the week. She explained that she does not have authority to approve the case on her own and that supervisor approval is required as part of the protocol. She also mentioned that she would be in court the following day for personal matters but that she would try to process my case as much as possible that day and discuss it with her supervisor. I asked whether there was anything further I needed to do or if additional documents were required. She stated that nothing further was needed and that my documentation including the marriage certificate and my child’s birth certificate was complete. However, she indicated that supervisor review was required in relation to my employment-related portion of the case. She was very polite and friendly throughout the interview and the overall atmosphere was positive. Before concluding, she asked if I would like her to call me after speaking with her supervisor and confirming visa number availability. She took my phone number and walked us to the exit when the interview concluded. It has now been six days, and I have not received a call or any case status updates. Is it normal for supervisor review to take this long?
