I-485 EB2 Case at NBC – Medical Interfile vs Waiting for RFE
Looking for advice on whether to interfile medicals or wait for RFE. Case details: - Receipt: LIN219015XXXX (EB2-based, Nebraska → NBC) - PD: Feb 2014 - Filed: Jan 2021 - Biometrics: Apr 2021 - Transferred to : Jul 2022 - 485J approved: Sep 2022 - Case went CRP due to visa retrogression (Sep 2022) - Interfiled medicals once in Jun 2022 (not sure if still valid/attached) - Reached out to Congressman office too. - Raised SR recently → agent said case was last reviewed on Apr 14, 2026 - Case is still at NBC, no RFE yet, no updates since review What I’m seeing: - Very close receipt numbers (0157xxx–0159xxx) are getting: - approvals directly (if complete), OR - medical RFEs → then approval within days - Some slightly later cases already approved My dilemma: - I will have new medical form in hands this week. - Not sure if I should: 1) Send unsolicited medicals (interfile now), OR 2) Wait for RFE since case seems actively under review Agent guidance so far: - “Do not interfile, wait for RFE” Would really appreciate input from others in a similar situation: 👉 Did you interfile proactively or wait? 👉 Any risk of delay if I send now while case is under review? 👉 How was your experience Thanks in advance.

I hope you get your RFE soon. We got RFEs for medicals and responded before becoming current in March and no update from USCIS since. how did you get your agent to tell you when the case was last reviewed. all I get is a repetition of the online status and then they disconnect. 😓

You can chat with live agent and sometimes they tell you that

I think congressman office got my file moving as after I got response from their office I believe my file moved to FO.

I got marital life proof and 485j rfe eventhough I had all documents attached in 2020, I guess this is to verify I am still married and have same employer as per my petition after 6 long years
