decision after expedition
I was able to expedite my i485 through my state senator. The first time, USCIS issued a RFIE for I-130 and I-485. After we sent in the responses, the senator filed for expedited processing again (which was accepted). does anybody have experience with how long it will take USCIS to adjudicate?

your congressional rep can do it too. just Google your town/zipcode+congressional representative and on their website they have a section for “help with a federal agency” and select uscis and follow instructions from there

Same boat here. Expedite approved on 04/18 and no updates since then. Uscis won’t give a timeline

@m c how long after u did expedite that they ask for RFE or approve case ?

as TT mentioned, your local senator or congressman will have a website. their website should have instructions about their ability to liason with USCIS. My senator got back to me the same day. it took about 2 weeks to receive a response from USCIS. the RFE was issued the same day as the OK for the first expedite.
