Does NBC approve GC or FO
Hi All, maybe this has been answered before, but I'm unclear on who approves I485. i recieved an RFE for Medicals (which i originally submitted) had to resubmit. recieved this request from a FO. spoke to emma today and they mentioned NBC is working on my case. been over 35+ days since Medicals were recieved by the FO. unclear if FO approves or is it normal process for them to send it back to NBC. EB1-A PD Feb 2019, current since Jan 2024. any insight would be appreciated. thanks

@GC Hopeful same to same background, except PD is July 2019. submitted medicals Dec 13 and CRP since rfe received! emma says case at NBC and was recently reveiwed and that NBC will send to FO who will then approve! i think FOs are also a wing/subset of NBC so unless we review the approval notice we will not know! FWIW, RFE was sent by FO, but case is now with NBC🤷🏽

@Michael M I sent my medicals to Brooklyn New York in December 2023 but did not receive any response about the medicals from them till now. However received a fingerprints request from NBC service center for my dependent because he turned 14 recently. My case was @ Brooklyn but biometric came from NBC. It that normal ? Did your I485 approval notice come from service center or FO ?

@Michael M that what exactly happened with me, exact on 60 day of medical submission I got approved
Greened HappyFeb 15, 2024
@S SS you will now see you get approved, that what happened with me, you never get any update of medical received by fo etc, they just progress to biometrics and then boom approval.

@Greened Happy wow congratulations ! So you mean they approve after the biometric? but my biometrics were done before and they are valid. Only my dependents biometric need to be done again because he recently turned 14. So they approve the primary and dependents together once everything is done or approval can come out of order ? Anything that you can share from your experience is appreciated. thanks 🙏

@Greened Happy truly. kind of monkey on the back. Agonizingly painful wait for over 1.5 years came to an end.

@S SS @Greened Happy congrats to you both. @S SS based on the timeline you shared within 60 days from receipt of medicals they approved your case, correct? I am on day 38 and very anxious. live agent mentioned my case was last reviewed on 2/14 but no update since.

@GC Hopeful Thanks 🙏. in my case they approved it on 47th day since I submitted my medicals. So roughly within 30-60 days they generally approve.

@GC Hopeful just hang in there for a week or so. They should approve it soon if PD is current.
