Case Processing
i-751 case status minor update
Last year in 2025 July they changed for every the statuses saying “ Case is still being proven by USCIS”, and that was discussed everywhere.
but now I see they changed mine to “USCIS is currently processing the case” does that mean they started actually reviewing it? or something else? did anyone’s status also switch?
Esta espera es tan injusta
En mi vida quiero volver a pasar un proceso como éste. y lo que faltaaaaaaaaa, es una incertidumbre demasiado grande estando lejos de su familia 😪😔sin saber ni el dia ni la hora.

this is my advice to everyone don’t let these lawyers intimidate you take matters into your hand do whatever you can to reach out to A senator or a congressman in your area to start reaching out to USCIS keep everything on record and make notes when next Follow Up should be
That’s the only way that we got things moving. The file was thrown aside for sure, and there was no timestamp movement as soon as we did Reach out back in January to a congressman. It moved first time second time another time stamp up in April May again and then lastly Called the Congressman’s office multiple times and reached out by mail and they were able to get a response on my case will be Finalized and a decision will be made in 30 days
This was on 1 July 6 of July the case got accepted

Found a tool that shows you real cases getting approved every day. It genuinely helped the wait. MyCasesHub
The worst part of waiting on USCIS is the silence. You have no idea if approvals are even happening or if everyone in your boat is just as stuck as you. Someone pointed me to MyCasesHub and there is a section called Today's Lucky Ones that changed how I felt about the wait.
It shows actual cases that got approved on a given day, the real receipt number, the form type, and when they were filed. You can pick any day from the past week, filter to your own form type and service center, and just see people like you getting approved in real time. When I saw I-485 cases at my service center clearing, filed around the same time as mine, it was the first time in months I felt like I was actually in a moving line and not a black hole.
There is a Denied and an RFE view too if you want the full picture instead of just the good news.
It is free and you do not even need an account to look:

Approved!! 🎉
Finally got my approval today. PD 28 April 2023. The case was transferred from NBC to Columbus, OH, sometime in May. I received an RFE for medicals on May 20. Sent the package on June 8th. Never got an update that the RFR was received, but got approval today!

post interview decision
it has been 4.5 months after i751 interview. i reached out to congressman’s office and this was the response “Thank you for contacting USCIS concerning the above-referenced application. Below is a summary of what we have found.
Your case is awaiting review. You do not need to do anything at this time. When we make a decision or take further action on your case, we will mail a notice to you or your representative at the address you gave us.”… 😩😩😩
