I don't know what is happening at NSC these days. They haven't approved any NIW cases filed from October20th, 2020 upward.
Fer SunJul 16, 2021
thanks for the reply, getting pretty tired of waiting. Specially as I did FP for my AOS submitted in April (with this I-140 pending..) Good luck with your case, hope we get some good news soon
p QJul 16, 2021
Good luck, staying positive! :)

@Fer Sun it will be approved soon.
Lu X.Jul 17, 2021
I’m from Nov and still waiting.
mel fJul 17, 2021
i applied for i-485 in april. Had my fingerprint taken last week (chicago). someone in the same path as me?
Fer SunJul 17, 2021
mel, I applied for I-485 in April 5th. biometrics on June 9th (San Diego). So waiting for my I-140 approval and also for the AOS.
Thank you all for the replies! good luck to all
Muso 2008Jul 17, 2021
I applied for i485, i131, and i765 in April and still waiting for biometrics appointment. Although my i140 niw is still pending. I filed my i140 in October 2020 at Texas Service Center.
p QJul 18, 2021
@Muso 2008, your case of I-485 and other things that go with it should be independent of I-140, so your biometric appointment should be scheduled regardless of adjudication status of I-140. Mine was adjudicated after my biometrics appointment and EAD and AP approval. Good luck to all

filled in March 2021, biometric on July 26. hopefully everything will go smoothly))
Muso 2008Jul 19, 2021
@PQ thank you. @ Az Sher thank you. I believe everything will work out well soon.

@muso 2008, same here applied for those forms from Nov. 2020 (TSC).. still haven’t heard back, and waiting for biometrics..
Muso 2008Jul 19, 2021
All, please let’s keep each other posted if we experience any changes or updates on our cases. Thank you.
A GJul 19, 2021
@P Q, may I know your timeline if it was from TSC?
Fer SunJul 19, 2021
I will certainly let you guys know as soon as I get any news. Good luck to you all, we’ve worked really hard for this :)

My I-140 was approved through Nebraska (August 20 2020 filing) and approved late March.
I-485 went to Missouri National Benefits Center at the End of September but was transferred to Nebraska in end of Jan. No movement since.
Fer SunJul 20, 2021
My lawyers told me that 37% of the NIW cases from October 2020 they sent to Nebraska were approved. Slowly getting there :)
Muso 2008Jul 25, 2021
All, I just received a mail from USCIS that my biometrics appointment has been scheduled for August 12. Exactly 4 months after they received my form i485, i765 and i131.
