I-485 June 2025 filers
Hi all, I filed my I-140 on Aug 28, 2023 (Nebraska SC) and I-765/I-131/I-485 on Jun 13, 2025 (NBC). Has anyone with a similar timeline received their I-485 approval or at least EAD approval? Any predictions on when these cases might be approved? Thanks for any insights!

June Filer. I did get my EAD combo but i485 is still being processed. I've seen approvals from early June filers mainly the NIWs. I checked that 324 block is currently being approved. I'm on 326 block so expecting a touch in couple of weeks unless they run out the visa for this year.

EAD got approved on july 31 and received 2 weeks later. my interview also has been waived. and have been on the “ case is still being processed”. have no idea when we ll be getting the 485 approval. I have seen wide range of comments. 🤞

@Alan Azhi is the block number on the receipt?

Ab BAug 21, 2025
@Waiting game I think the block number is the numbers in receipt number. for example IOE0932Xxxx. so people refer to the numbers.

@Alan Azhi I didn’t get a notice letter. I received an email regarding update the I checked and saw my step 3 “attend interview” has been marked as completed. I asked someone through Emma and got confirmed that it has been waived.

Thanks Mo D for sharing. casestatusext is what I use. I mainly check the who is getting approved this week chart on casestatusext.com. You need to select the recipt number. Based on the historical trends I see block cases usually see two approval spikes. one around 10-12 week mark and the major one around 5 to 6 month mark from the blocks receipt date. The first spike seem to be for straightforwards cases which go directly to approval.
