EB1-C - ROW approval
Hi all,
I'd like to share my experience, as I know you are probably as anxious as I was while waiting for an update on my case π.
I submitted the I-485 for an EB1-C on 02Jul2020, my birth country is Brazil and my FO is Miami.
I received a biometrics appointment very quickly, done on 12Aug2020, however, I heard no news for 13 months, until one day I get a Lawfully update stating that my new card was being produced - no RFE and no interview.
The bottom line is: even if you don't hear anything on your case for several months, when you least expect it, it will come π.
All the best!

hey Carolina, how long after your 140 approval you got this 485 approval? congrats
Carolina Canton Maciel TrintinaliaSep 20, 2021
It was 12.5 months after I-140 approval. I submitted my I-140 in March 2020, then the I-485 in July 2020 (before I-140 approval) and got the I-140 approval at the end of August 2020.

@Carolina Canton, congratulations! Did you get your green card mailed to you? I got approved on Sep 17th, Friday last week, and I am waiting for my status to change from 'new card is being produced' since then...

@A S, thanks! I did have it mailed to me, it actually arrived by mail 4 days after the approval. Lawfully has a tool that shows what is the next status and timeframe for it and it states that 24% of the cases take up to 5 days to have the status changed to "new card is being produced", but 75% has this done 1 day after "Case was approved" status. Hopefully you'll see an update very very soon, but it can still take a couple more days per Lawfully statistics π.
