@ashutosh singh Congrats for your approval. Our case is also at Sacramento. How many days it took to approve after you submitted the rfe? Was your status changed to rfe response received?
ashutosh singhMay 21, 2026
@J Z it was approved in 3 business days, it never changed to rfe received
J ZMay 21, 2026
@ashutosh singh thanks for the response.So you got approved before your sons biometrics. Our response was delivered on May 15th, still no update. Our daughterās biometric was on May 15th.

Put TJun 3, 2026
thanks for the reddit post @s m . I haven't seen any movement so far but just saw some other posts about approvals from other FOs so that's promisingš¤š¼
Put TJun 3, 2026
@CK Ram my timeline for the RFE delivery is the same as yours. What's your PD?
s mJun 3, 2026
Hi all, I had no update. The status still says RFE sent. No acknowledgement of response received yet.
CK RamJun 3, 2026
@s m @J Z @ashutosh singh Thank you for the responses. @Put T My EB1B PD is June 2022 and I sent my medicals on 29April. The status changed on May06 and no update after that.
s mJun 3, 2026
@CK Ram so your current status shows Response received? My RFE response was delivered on May 13th, and the status still says, RFE sent. They havenāt changed the status to response received yet.
CK RamJun 3, 2026
@s m yes they updated my case as response received after 1 week but no updates after that (May6).

@ashutosh singh @Put T @GC long @J Z @CK Ram I know someone who got approved today. His RFE was issued 23 april, his response delivered on May 18.
it looks like Sacramento FO is opening up and approving cases.
J ZJun 9, 2026
@s m thanks for the update. Good to hear that they are waking up. . Itās really frustrating how long they are taking to check the rfe response.
Put TJun 10, 2026
that's very exciting news @s m - hoping we're next in line!

@ashutosh singh @Put T @GC long @J Z @CK Ram,
my approval came through. I asked my congressman to reach out and check for updates. I never heard back from my congressman whether they reached iut to USCIS or not, but I would like to believe that it helped. The approval came through one week after I mailed the congressman.
J ZJun 24, 2026
@s m congratulations. Did u receive your card ?
Put TJun 24, 2026
@s m congratulations!! You must be very relieved! And thanks for sharing those details!
ashutosh singhJun 27, 2026
today I have received approval for my son, at last everyone is greened
J ZJun 27, 2026
@ashutosh singh congrats. Gud to hear that the headache is over for you. Enjoy š
J ZJul 18, 2026
@Put T @GC long @CK Ram any updates?
Put TJul 18, 2026
@J Z my status changed to "new card being produced" on Jul 15 and then to "approved" on Jul 16!
J ZJul 18, 2026
@Put T congratulations. I have seen your post. Here still no update. Have u raised any inquiry after sending the rfe response?
Put TJul 18, 2026
thank you so much! hoping yours comes through soon too since Sacremento FO seems to be active again. And yes i think the inquiry helped - my company lawyers filed an SR mid June when the rfe response delivery was not reflected in any status - USCIS wrote back last week saying they're working on the case as resources become available and then a week after I saw the approval.
GC longJul 18, 2026
no updates
J ZJul 18, 2026
@GC long have you checked your case status? Because in lawfully, GC longās timeline shows that your I 485 is approved on July 10th.
J ZAug 19, 2026
@CK Ram any update?
