@M J i485 took a few days after i130 , yea ?
Mrs O OAug 28, 2025
wow congrats, that was fast. I have similar case with you. I submitted in August 2021, got my green card in Jan 2022, Applied for removal of condition in Nov 2023. I got the 48 months extension, unfortunately my husband passed in 2023. I am yet to get my 10 years green card. am thinking of filling for N-400. to see if that would expedite the process. or am I gonna wait a bit longer since ce my husband passed?
M JAug 28, 2025
@user 000 Both were approved the same day. I live about 20 mins from my FO at the time and I got the approval notification before I got home. April 2nd I received the card. It seems the timeline isn't as accurate because it was so long ago
M JAug 28, 2025
@Mrs O O My sincerest condolences for loss. Unfortunately I don't think you qualify for the 3 year path but you should speak to a Lawyer to see what other options you have.
