I-485 approved, but no I-130 updates yet
Hi all, Just curious if anyone’s been in this situation. Our interview was exactly 2 weeks ago and my I-485 just got approved today (yay!) however there hasn’t been any updates yet online for the I-130. Is there anything to worry about? I was thinking I-130 should be approved first. 🤔 We filed concurrently btw.

my lawyer said when they update I-130. The status will be denied since you don’t need it, you already have I 485 approved

@youssef yb, thanks! no not on the spot, we were given the paper that says my case needs to be reviewed. But my online status stayed “Interview Scheduled” until today when it changed to “Case Approved”

you didnt have to file a I-130 if you and your spouse already living in the state. That form is only for consulate processing

only need to file i485

@drkr deer, what is your priority date? all you need to look for is the "card being produced" status on 485

The I-130 and I-485 have to be filed both because the I-130 is your spouse’s petition for you

i485 is for adjustment of status. only if you have a status in the state for example a student visa or a work visa

Update- I went to the online account of the I-130 and under the documents tab was the approval notice 😄 So they just didn’t change the status online anymore but notice was mailed. Thank you and good luck to all!
