APPROVED I-485, I-360
Had my I-485 interview yesterday after approved I-360 petition in 2024. Status today shows I-485 Green card is APPROVED. 6 whole years of turmoil with 17 Notices of Actions, 6 EADs, multiple Prima Facies and a whole lot of mental, physical and emotional warfare. Through this process, I stand as testimony that patience is truly a virtue and delay is definitely not denial. It still feels like a dream. I am thankful to God Almighty, family, friends, and to all the people of lawfully who strive to achieve the American dream. Though not an easy road, indeed it is possible. I urge everyone to persist in faith, live a good life, and donโt lose yourself during this process. Happy Holidays!

Yes I went with a lawyer and it was a relaxing experience.

2. What is your full name and DOB?
3. What is your current address? (Apartment or House)
4. Where do you work? (Full Address)
5. What visa status did you have prior to filing for I-485?
6. What petition is this I-485 based on?
7. How many times have you been married?
8. Do you have your passports and updated medical document?
9. All the I-485 yes or no questions
10. W2s and tax return or transcripts
11. Do you have any other documents to support your case?
Best wishes at your upcoming interview!

Chucks chachachaDec 19, 2025
@AJ power mine was We ordered your new card. What questions were you asked during your interview?
AJ powerDec 19, 2025
@Chucks chachacha I was asked how I met my husband and what was the relationship like? why would he say some of the stuff in my I-130 interview then my lawyer intervened and said why are you asking questions about what the abuser said I have an approved VAWA so we should not go back to that. the supervisor came and then after the officer started asking me the I-485 questions
Michael BashorunDec 20, 2025

Janielys NievesJan 11, 2026
ok
Chucks chachachaJan 12, 2026
@AJ power apparently the officers reserve the right to ask you questions from current or previous cases. Your lawyer should know this and should not have intervened. Not answering all the questions asked is more like youโre conducting your own interview which should not be the case. I think post interview, a decision should be made around 180 days. Nonetheless, continue to keep the faith alive. Call, create service requests, write the office if you have to. Best wishes @AJ power

@Chucks chachacha Hi, I want to ask โ if move after filing the I-485 and current address is different from the one on the application, can we give the officer the new address during the interview?
Will it be a problem that we didnโt update the address within 10 days?
Chucks chachachaMar 7, 2026
@Maria meza expedite was requested based on humanitarian reasons and was denied for lack of supporting documents.
Chucks chachachaMar 7, 2026
@kiki C great question. Yes you can give the new address during an interiew if there is one. Instead of waiting, call immediately and change your address with USCIS support. And no, I donโt think it is a problem if you didnโt update your address in exactly 10 days. You just might miss out on certain correspondence if any was sent. Continue to check previous address for mails for maybe 1-3 months to be on a safe side.
kiki CMar 7, 2026
@Chucks chachacha thank you for your answer. My mailing address hasnโt changed โ itโs still my lawyerโs office. Only my physical address has changed. If the physical address can be updated during the interview without causing any issues, that would be great!
Chucks chachachaMar 10, 2026
@kiki C but why wait until the interview to change it?
kiki CMar 10, 2026
@Chucks chachacha because Iโm not sure if I might move again, I thought it would be easier if we could update the address during the interview instead
