I filed N400 November 2025 (5years rule) pending 751 Biometrics was reused November 22 2025 I received the same update everyone had about USCIS is currently processing the case ealier this month but date didn't change. But then today i received the same USCIS is currently processing the case with today's date July 16. which makes exactly 8 months of filing, Field office Minneapolis.

Biometrics update

Hi all, Right after I delivered my biometrics in May, I received an email from USCIS and their system started saying "USCIS is currently processing the Case" without showing any indication about biometrics. There is no other update since then and I wonder if this is the same for everyone.

EAD I-765

Can someone please explain to me what USCIS means when you go from "Case is still being processed" to "USCIS is currently processing the case"? 'Cause that’s what it’s saying now but I don’t see any movement on my I-765. Has it happened to any of you? Thank you so much!!
