hi Mel I'm in the same boat I had my biometrics taken on August 3rd and waiting for the EAD now, I recovered the same notice with date 10/13 last week, I really don't know what to expect either, only know I have to wait.

recived* not recovered

That’s just a confirmation of your Bona Fide job offer that you are supposed to accept once I485 is approved, it is only for informational purpose

same here, I gave biometrics on Aug 13 and received i485j notice dates 10/19

only for information purpose… I got mine Since April 27, 2021… up to now—- no decision

Hello, i'm just following your case, i received my 485j receipt today as well dated 10/19/21 filed my EB3 6/22/21 NBC and bio completed some said it could mean that in about a month we can get the decisons so hopefully good news will come 🙂

@jiwon I really hope so, your time line is similar to mine too so hopefully next month

any update?

@Junaid not for me. still waiting

@jiwon I got RFE update on case status today. didn’t receive the letter so don’t know which rfe it is

probably medical

@Junaid when and where did you submit?

Case submitted on June 25 in NBC

please, keep us posted what the RFE is about

@junaid no updates. Will I receive one shortly you think ? i submitted Medicals with my application

@mel can’t say anything, don’t know yet what my rfe is about. will update once received the letter

@jiwon y did you get ead yet ?

@mel you got apporval without interview?

@junaid correct!

congrats! my status changed today to “new card is being produced”

as per my observation it is taking 40 days approx to get gc approval after 485j letter. NBC doesn't even send ur case to local office.... they approve it directly if no complications

@junaid that’s fantastic news!! congratulations

thanks @mel and best of luck to all who are waiting for the decision
