I485 processing time
I filed my i485 for greencard in Aug 2023 still waiting. I have tried service requests and congresswoman and got a reply couple of months ago that my file was in sacramento field office. Last week i chat with emma and connected to a live agent she told me mine is in NBC from the beginning till now. I dont know which one to believe.

@Ak . after 12 months it’s good but based on what I have studied and research I will consider 15 month a sweet spot !!!
