AOS undder 3 months! (H1B to Marriage Based GC)
First of all as a long time lurker I just want to thank everyone for all the input and replies whenever I needed them.
Our status updates to case approved for I485 today and I cannot be more excited to get the GC in mail in the next week or two!
Thank you to all the SFV field office officers and staff for being fair and treating us amazingly.
tip: Sponsor and Beneficiary both registered for USCIS online account and it was SO HELPFUL. Everytime there was an update on the case we got a text + email, therefore we were able to reply to RFE promptly (we did this on the online portal as well instead of mailing) and next day the officer downloaded all the RFE docs and requested interview for us. Most of the notices became immediately available on the portal once mailed and you can download them. (excluding the interview notice but it arrived regardless) And BRING EVERYTHING you can to the interview. The officer was friendly but she did ask for ALL the evidence we had for bona fide marriage and kept all of them.

that was very fast. how do I receive the text and email
from them rather that sogn on my case number. what question was you given

From my personal experience, If you create a USCIS account with your phone number and email, then add the IOE case with account verification code mailed to you in the beginning of the process you’ll start getting updates on it.

The officer we had was super friendly and understanding. But she was detailed and thorough with her questions and getting/checking the right documents from us and took at least half of the documents I brought and I brought a 2 inch binder of copies. She asked for when and how we met, when we became a serious couple and when my husband proposed to me (recorded our answers) then she asked for ALL of the additional documents we have for bona fide relationship which we had A LOT of and she took notes and kept all of them (including letter from friend/ pictures/leases etc) She asked us to confirm information on the application and some standard security questions. Checked my husband’s certificate of citizenship and passport. And went over my my i693 in front of us and took more notes.
