Congratulations - we concurrently filed in February 2020, I140 approved in September 2020 but nothing since - hoping for some action soon.

Did you have to do an interview? We have not been asked for medicals yet either.

Congrats, i almost submitted my AOS on the same time but my PD is 2 years earlier. Did you submit the medical forms along with the AOS? Also, i would like to know what did you ask Emma about since there are no delays.

No interview. I filed my medicals along with AOS.

I just used to ask about my case post-BM's to understand its location.

Did you get the notice letter of transfer to field office? I heard that NBC can directly approve the case without transferring to field office, and I'm curious if my application will need to be transferred to field office as well.

You would get a letter if it changed the service center. NBC is just a centralized center, and it has FO’s reporting to itself. San Antonio is a FO under NBC, which verified the file and provided approval to NBC, which eventually will approve your file. This is applicable only with NBC.

Thank you very much for your response!

No problem. Any questions I can answer will definitely respond.

Hi Peru, when did you submit your medicals in Dec 2020? I thought they were only valid for 6 months or did you need to do something else.

@peru voddu - Congrats. That was fast. I have similar timeline like yours. Did you expedite? How did you use Ask Emma to find out that the case was transfered to FO?When I try, its asking to file an inquiry only if its outside normal processing time. My case details: EB-1A, My receipt number is MSC219165*** Center: NBC PD: March 15,2017 (ported from EB2 petition) EB1A I-140 approved date: July 21, 2021 Filed I765,I131 and I 485 ND - August 20 , 2021 Biometric: Sept 20, 2021

No I did not expedite my i485 but I did for i131, and the status of that still shows “Expedite request received”.

I'm not sure why they are asking you to file an inquiry. One week after I gave my BM on 10/29 I asked Emma agent if the BM’s are applied to my case. On 11/15 they mentioned my file is with San Antonio FO, and I need to follow their timeline.

Thanks. How did you contact them? you mention that on 11/15 they mentioned that your file has moved to FO. Did you contact them again to obtain the information?

Through Emma chat agent

interesting. isnt it a chat bot?

it is but you can chat with an agent.

is your GC approved or EAD/AP approved

GC.

Thats great. How long did they take you to get your receipts for I 140?

Receipts timeline keeps varying by the busy schedule of USCIS. I submitted my i140 on 7th Dec 2020, and during that time, USCIS was piled up by downgrade applications. I got my receipts in March 2021.

You can always check with Emma agent on the receipt number by providing your details. if it is entered in the system they will be providing it.
