do 485 cases need to move to FO for adjudication?
I am seeing mixed information online about whether employment based visas need to go through a field office (local or non-local) for approvals to happen?
Are approvals coming from NBC too? stuck in a situation where I have multiple timestamp updates yet my case remains at NBC.

It does not have to be approved at a FO. Whether or not your case gets transferred depends on a lot of factors, it could be that your case requires an interview, could be USCIS workload redistribution, etc. Our interview was waived and the case eventually was approved at NBC

they moved to FO for a part of the process. Need additional review or case load MGMT -> transfer to FO
needs an interview -> goes to local FO
most get their final approval from NBC itself so likely that the FO moves the case back.
