more than 150 days since the RFE for I-485

Hello Community I submitted my I-485 in June 2022 after my I-140 NIW approval. On September 2022, I received RFE for medical And we responded back in early October 2022. But my status still shows "Request for Additional Evidence Was Sent". Is this normal after more than 150 days? should the status change to "request for additional evidence was received" or something? What should I do? just wait? Thanks, #RFE #485
