are you using the premium procesing? if not, you may have to wait a while because non premium cases are taking a much longer timeframe

That is still within the normal range for many employment-based I-485s. USCIS adjudicative review can take months even after the file looks complete, especially in employment-based cases where visa availability and final review still have to line up. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them in our next Lawfully office hours session! - Attorney Rashmi Bishnoi (All information shared here is for general educational purposes only.
