have no idea stuck since January 2021 idk what background they are checking

@tired from waitingg question, how did u know it’s because they checking background?

@d s. After My interview it took them 12 Months to do my background Checks. each time I called they said they are doing My background until all the required Background checks are completed before they can make a Decision. I called them 4 times and I sent online request twice for case out of normal processingtime. I contacted congressman and she contacted them they said same thing. Exactly 12 Months My case was approved and I got My GC within 2 weeks.

background checks are not just in the US, based on where you are from they may request your background from your home country or via interpol and if there is a name match they have to assign your case to an actual agent with either CIA or FBI to do a deep dive and some of these agents have mounts of cases to handle that’s why some people background comes back in weeks and others take years and unfortunately until your name check passes they cannot proceed with your case. Best of luck

@blessed & favored fair enough, as they should

I have similar case, i360 approved sep 2024, i485 no updates I tried to speak to uscis represntative they says background check security clearance no further info or required..it stuck on background for 11 months now..

@tired from waitingg have you tried it? I heard it’s actually not a good idea they might just deny it straight instead of sending an RFE. Not sure how true that is though
