Case Processing
EB2 Consular Processing. Administrative processing since 10/10/2024
I had my visa interview on 10/10/2024 and I was denied visa under INA 212(a)(6)(C)(i). The reason was unlawful work while on F1 visa. However I contacted LegalNet and had overturned that decision. LegalNet advised that the US Consulate will contact me as to how to proceed with the case. Right now visa status is in administrative processing, it has been 4 month since then. I was banned to enter the US for lifetime then got it lifted through LegalNet since that ban was actually unjustified. But my case is still in administrative
processing.
I assume my situation is extremely rare if any but if anyone ever had any similar experience please share.

Is this a good sign?
Hi all.
We submitted our i-485s (me and my husband) and my i-765 on March 24th. Biometrics on April 17th. Still nothing so far, not even the EAD approval. But our APIs have been updated recently.
Besides API updates in May, it was silent until both our i-485 APIs were updated first on August 15th, then August 27th. Then silence until October 16th, then again yesterday, October 20th. All without event codes, just silent updates.
Is this considered a good sign? Any idea what it could mean?
Emma agents keep giving conflicting information. Asked 4 times in the past 2 months, first and last said it was in San Antonio (local field office) and the 2nd and 3rd agents said it was at NBC.
Though yesterday's updates were around 1:47 PM CT, around the time AWS servers "kind of" started getting better and was wondering if this is a good sign or if yesterday's updates were just server and maintenance stuff.
i-485 AOS
Any EB1C who filed November 2023 still waiting for their AOS? 140 approved last June 2025 but AOS filed concurrently with the 140 last Nov 2023. It’s been current ever since but I’ve been seeing a lot of approvals even those with later priority dates. anyone on the same boat? already filed online inquiry but havent received any response. any advise would be greatly appreciated

Interview Done
Glory to God for all He has done. The interview itself went smooth and easy, just delayed a bit at the start because of an internet outage at the field office. They switched everything to a virtual format, and I ended up being the last person called in while many were still waiting.
I went 6 for 6 on the civics questions, then answered a few personal questions and the standard yes/no section. The officer mentioned that my case is a bit unique: I originally became a family-based green card holder in June 2015, and then converted to marriage-based on March 26, 2018. I filed my N-400 on March 26, 2025, and my biometrics were reused. My lawyer submitted a cover letter explaining how my earlier lawful presence is credited toward continuous residence to support eligibility.
Because of that timeline, she said she just needs to settle a few internal checks before making the final decision. She mentioned she’d be working on it today, so I’m currently waiting for the outcome.
