My fingers need a break from me 😂
So my I-485 is being actively reviewed for the 3rd time. First was the day of my biometrics, then the day they marked my rfe as recieved, and now a couple days after. How long after did yours get approved?
I’ve been logging in to my account a million times daily (even at odd hours🫣), hoping to see my approval letter sitting there 😅
just got interviewed today @ Houston FO
Today I visited interview along with my spouse. The interviewer was very kind and treated well. He asked very basic questions, and he was more focusing on how confident are we giving the responses.
He almost covered 80% of the Q's from I-485 form. He had all my docs ready in front of him.
Only asked Employer letter, passport, paystubs.
A lot of common Q's like:
Name
when did you last entered USA and visa type.
when did you first entered into USA and visa type. Asked if I have old passport and reviewed it.
Employer name. Previously Employer name.
Current job Title. Previous job title.
Parents names, where are they now?
Do you kids, if so their names?
Current Address.
City and country of birth.
Date of Birth.
Do you remember your SSN? If so tell me.
Medicals were submitted during I-485 were less than 2 yrs, and no need to re-take.
Under I-485 form, page 10, column 25. I checked it since I had traffic ticket. Officer asked if the charge for the ticket is below $500 for the I answer Yes.
Asked very similar questions to my spouse.
Finally mentioned that he tools notes and he wanted to have it reviewed with his supervisor. It would take around 4 weeks to get back to you. But so far all the docs and information that you provided seems positive to me. No remarks so far.

I-485 refilling
Refilling my I-485
I got my I-485 denied for which I believe(and others here) that was their(USCIS) mistake.
Rather than trying to convince them of their mistake should I just refile my I-485? (my I-130 was accepted) and do I have to pay the fees or can I not pay them for this same case?
I read a few articles and some say if your i-130 was accepted and you are just refilling for the same case you wouldn’t need to pay the fees but want to hear from you guys.
