S AMay 13, 2022
awesome, congratulations ...
I believe your i485 is already outside the processing time, are you planning to submit a case inquiry?
I-130 Petitioner May 13, 2022
do you think the delay was because you filed concurrently??
Ana SampaioMay 13, 2022
@S A, thanks. Yes, I submitted it, but they said they needed additional review.
Ana SampaioMay 13, 2022
@waiting NIW. When I called them, they said that is because of the pandemic. I don't believe it, but this is what they always respond to.
Ana SampaioMay 14, 2022
Thanks, everyone! When my lawyer told me, I was shaking so much. It was very exciting! π
beulah sMay 14, 2022
congrats!
S AMay 26, 2022
Hi Ana,

Hi S A, no updates, still reviewing π
S AMay 27, 2022
Hi Ana,
thanks for your reply.
if you don't mind I will follow up with you from time to time.
Thanks

Hi Ana Sampaio, have you heard back from USCIS. I received my RFE for medicals last week Thursday and mailed it to my FO yesterday via FedEx. It was delivered this morning.
Ana SampaioJul 14, 2022
Hi Super Man!
No news yet.
They only transferred my husbandβs case (485) to NBC more than 1 month ago.
I am the primary and still stuck in Texas.
Good to know they asked you for the exams! π
Finally is ongoing, congrats! π
Super ManJul 14, 2022
@Ana Sampaio thank you.
Ana SampaioJul 20, 2022
Hi @Super Man.
I have news, yesterday, my case was transferred to NBC. I will keep you posted.
Please, Keep me posted too π
Hopefully, we get our GC soon β€οΈπ
Super ManJul 20, 2022
@Ana Sampaio congratulations! Next they will send you RFE for medicals. Sure I will keep you updated.
Ana SampaioJul 20, 2022
@Super Man! woohoo! I canβt wait for that π
Thank you, we are almost there! π

@Ana Sampaio, Out processing time i485?
Ana SampaioJul 21, 2022
Hi IsaCat, yes right now that my case is transferred to NBC.
But when I try to create an inquiry, they say itβs not outside normal processing time π€¦ββοΈπ‘
S AAug 16, 2022
Hi Ana,
how is your case coming along?
Ana SampaioAug 16, 2022
Hi SA, finally yesterday I received the letter about the medical exams.
I will send it today π
How about you?
Praying for all of us π
S AAug 16, 2022

wife (dependent) can see e at NBC since May, and no change on mine :(

Ana SampaioAug 16, 2022
Hi SA, itβs frustrating.
I hope you hear good news soon!
They didnβt allow me to submit an inquiry because they said it was in normal processing time βΉοΈ
S AAug 17, 2022

No interview, only the exams.

I change my job when I got the EAD, but no change when I got the GC.
