Approved!!!
Praise the Lord! After a long and difficult wait, it has been approved. I can't tell you how excruciating this wait was, but I am grateful it ended well.
Don’t lose hope. They are organizing the system and processing cases correctly. If you followed the rules, you don’t need to worry about your case.
I will be praying for everyone who remains in line.
I am a religious worker, and my priority date was October 8, 2021. I received a Request for Evidence regarding employment and medicals on May 14. A few days after they confirmed receipt of the response, they approved our cases (family included).
God is good all the time!

@C M So truth God is good all the time. I am still here waiting for my miracle. October 21 is good advance.

@CP Costa they asked separately. Prove of employment authorization and medicals for my wife and just medicals for my son. However, last week they requested a new fingerprint for my son.

Congratulations on your approval!
I am also an EB-4 religious worker with a priority date very close to yours, so your post was very encouraging to me.
If you don't mind sharing, when you mentioned that USCIS sent you an RFE regarding employment and medicals, what exactly did they request concerning employment? What documents did you submit in response?
Thank you very much, and congratulations again on your approval!

@Rumi S Amen 🙏🏽

@Rigo Vasquez, @Rumi S and @Christ S they requested proof that I am still working at the same job, requested proof of employment authorization from March 2024, and medicals. In response, I sent a letter from employer, my EAD card, and exams.
They sent the RFE on May 14. On June 9 they confirmed they received the response for RFE, and on June 11 approved my case.
My office is Nebraska.
I tried contacting my congressman but they didn’t answer my messages. I don’t know if they sent anything to USCIS.
What I did was keeping sending service requests for all my cases. You can do it by phone or EMMA. I did it just to keep them looking at my case. Not sure if it had any influence.
Hopefully you all will get the good news soon.
