I485 anyone?? (F2A marriage based)
Hi everyone!
Is anyone else here currently waiting for their I-485 to be approved?
I’m in the waiting phase and would love to connect with others who are in the same boat. The wait can feel pretty long, so it’d be nice to share updates or experiences 🙂
Ps. My case was filed concurrently, and my I-130 has already been approved in Dec 2023.

Hi!!👋 I am waiting since my pd: Dec 9/2022, F2A case, (I130 Approved in February 2023 without an interview). Yesterday I saw a change in my documents tab….(not e-mail or fisical letter yet).
They sent me a RFE (they ask for a new medical exam…. I-693 form ) Because mine expired...
My doctor's appointment is tomorrow... and as soon as I have the results, I will send them... and I will wait again for further instructions. 🙏

Ivan RFeb 7, 2026
@F J I don’t understand why it is taking so long from receipt of the medical. At NBC?
F JFeb 8, 2026
@Ivan R I have no idea. My case is very straightforward (I-130 approved after interview 2 years ago) and everything should be fast for the approval at this point. I have 61 days right know from the moment they received my medical.
Ivan RFeb 8, 2026
@F J hopefully you get approval soon. I’m sending my medical tomorrow
F JFeb 8, 2026
