Case Processing
processing time for 485!
Hello guys!
My EB2 ROW date is current!
I applied for my EB2 ROW 485 application in Oct 1. My PD is Early Apr ‘23. I already got my EAD (after biometrics appointment 11.1).
I believe I am in the National benefit Center based on prefix code.
How long would it take to get the green card now that I am current? Is there an interview?
For those who just got their green cards, when did you get it after you became current?
hope you guys are also getting good news soon!
Thanks in advance!
EAD renewal
Hello everyone, I hope everyone is remaining hopeful or atleast trying to. I have a question, so I submitted my EAD for renewals, it will expire in June. I notice my lawyer send the application to the Nebraska office but I am pretty sure my case is being handled by Vermont service center. I ask her about it and she says all vawa applications are handled by Nebraska. I submit the renewal last month, but I haven't receive a receipt. I know there are changes going on since the new administration, so things may take a little longer. Does anyone know if what she says about Nebraska is true and have anyone submitted a renewal recently and have you heard anything?

Response to RFE -I485
Hello,
Need help!
I have received a RFE requesting original or certified copy of all criminal records starting from my first day in USA. But, I have never been involved in crimes except minor traffic incidents such as speeding and parking violations. All these traffic violations fee was under $300.
What should I respond to this RFE where I don’t have any criminal records?
Thanks in Advance for any suggestions.
evidence
is it okay to submit recently evidence like photos, evidence of bank transactions etc, we sent in a bunch of evidence at the start however would like to update since it’s almost been 2 years since we married etc, also my wife couldn’t add me to her bank account since I didn’t have any forms of ID under the US government, will this matter since they would know I live in Australia etc?

Wich is my priority date?
My i130 has a priority date of 12/31/2019 and was approved on 4/29/2021, and my i485 has a date of 2/22/2022, so what is the important date? I want to know if my date on the visa bulletin has already passed since 2019 or if I have to wait until 2022. I already have my work and travel permit from February 2023, but it expired in February 2025, and my i485 is still pending.
i 130 approved while in removal proceedings
Hello friends,
i got my i 130 approved less then two weeks ago, and my main question is what next step should be? Currently in removal proceedings with pending asylum. Merit hearing is scheduled for May 2026. Should I adjudicate my case with judge, or is it better to do terminate the case and move with USCIS? Anybody in similar situation? Do we have to go through another round of marriage interview for i485? any suggestions will be appreciated!

Approved Thank God🤍
Reading everyone’s post kept me sane during all of this process, so i promised myself that i would share my experience once we were approved. First, we are extremely thankful for this amazing blessing, but just try to be patient and optimistic your time is coming! I wanted to share a little bit of my experience throughout this whole process. My husband and I we’re scheduled for an interview yesterday in the dallas field office. We got there 15 min before our appointment (definitely recommend 30 min before because it’s like TSA and don’t know how many people will get there before you and need to go through metal detectors and all that). We went through the metal detector, checked in and headed up the stairs to wait to be called. We waited for 2 hours before they called us up for our interview. The lady we got was extremely kind and told us the reason why we were called for a interview is because we needed more stuff to prove it was a bone a fide marriage. We knew this was the reason due to my lack of status not allowing us to obtain a bank account together, have bills to my name, add me to the lease nor have paystubs that support we live together. Since i had gotten my work permit quickly i was able to set everything up (bills, bank accounts, lease and paystubs). We printed all of this evidence before the interview and had it ready. Once she asked for more evidence, i proceeded to give her the documents mentioned above. She then said perfect and moved on to our interview. The interview was very fast and simple, she only asked how we met and when we decided to get married. She then said “okay i believe you, i will approve your I-130 and I-485 today”. We were probably in her office a total of 10 min! We are extremely thankful to have gotten such kind and chill officer. Now we wait for my green card to get in the mail.
P.S.
I entered the US when i was 11 y/o with a tourist visa and overstayed it. I never left so there was no need for AP. i obtained 2 degrees (they say it helps your case because it proves you’re not going to be a public liability). No criminal record, did not need a lawyer however we did hire someone to do all the process for us. Hope this helps!
