Non local FO Seattle
Any experience with Seattle FO? Non local again for me. Emma live agent confirmed twice on different occasions it is at Seattle non local. Can’t tell me if an agent is actively working on my case or not. Can’t tell me when the last time was that and agent actively looked at my case. Stated interview is waived and no RFEs. Processing normal times. PD 9/2021. Electronic filing. IOE. 12/2025. API says location “null”. What does this mean? Last timestamp April 2026 according to API. Can’t understand why it takes so long if everything has been submitted

@Testing Patience check the document API, it will show you your jurisdiction.

@Testing Patience Also have you received FTA0 or FTA1? Check if your i485j has been approved or not as well. Usually they will approve your i485j and a i485 will follow.

@Sylvester Tanning one IAF when documents were filed concurrently. 3 FTA0. one when app for biometrics made. one when biometrics done. one when officer worked on it in April 2026. And nothing in documents except the list of what was filed, the biometrics scheduled.

@Sylvester Tanning I485j not approved yet
Sylvester TanningJul 12, 2026
@Testing Patience Keep an eye out for the i485j approval again that’s the ultimate indication that your i485 will be approved. Your interview seems to have been waived as your case is being handled by a non local FO and atleast is not getting stuck at NBC.

@Sylvester Tanning thank you. it seems like it. They have medicals and they are valid. Also, I see lawfully says average 246 days for approval of I485J? Not sure if this is correct or not but if it is, it should be within the next 2-3 weeks

@Testing Patience not sure if you already have this but try this API: https://my.uscis.gov/account/case-service/api/case_status/IOE09XXXXXXXX This should show you your jurisdiction and where your case is.
