I-485J added to USCIS Portal after 7 months
I had submitted I-485J a long with I-485 in Dec 2024. my case was transferred to Non-local FO Santa ana on 10-June. after receiving an email saying action has been taken on my case, I can see that I-485J case was generated and added to portal. is this normal? what does it mean? EB-1C PD:Jun-2020 RD: Dec-2024 COB:IND

@amdsk a thank you and hope so. are you aware of any case where I-485J was added after case is transferred to Non-local FO?

@lk s no I am not but the fact that they uploaded it means everything looks good + the fact that it is at non-local field office = imminent decision

@lk s - Hey there. My case timeline is very similar to yours. EB1C, India. PD - June 2021 and RD - Jan 2025. 485 and 485J were filed together. I received an RFE to resubmit supplement J in April 2025 which we responded to. Haven't received the notice for the 485-J supplement yet. this gives me an insight that I'm not alone who hasn't received the J supplement notice immediately but was uploaded at a later date. based on what you say - this looks like an approval is near. @amdsk a is right !! good luck and keep us posted.

@black blazer Was your i485 at field office when you received ead/ap?

@amdsk a - yes. I guess. here's a summary April 2025 - RFE letter received from Hartford FO May 2025 - EAD/ AP combo approval letter comes from NBC Last 485 api update is showing 5/21. nothing after that.

@amdsk a - are you able to make any predictions for my case 🙈

@black blazer Since it is at FO, it is basically waiting for an officer to take a look. It really could be very soon or any day. Keep an eye out for api updates as an indicator. You’re literally at the very tail end of the stage. Good luck! it will be soon.

@amdsk a - thank you for your positive thoughts. based on the api updates we're discussing on the other thread (where I'm seeing the null error) I'm now unsure if my case is at FO. so confusing

@black blazer You can double confirm with Emma. But since you got a response from FO, I am pretty sure that’s where your file is.

@amdsk a - can't reach out to Emma on my own based on instructions from employer's attorneys !!!

@black blazer Got it. You can only wait then. But the good thing is all signs point to the fact that you are at the very tail end of the stage even from total days elapsed perspective. A decision is coming and soon. Good luck!
