i 485
Finally, my green card has been approved! 🎉
After a very long and stressful journey, I finally received the approval for my I-485. My asylum was granted in 2023, and I filed my I-485 in January 2025. After many months of waiting, updates, and uncertainty, I finally had my interview on September 22, 2026.
The interview went well, and now my case has finally been approved! 🙏🇺🇸
To everyone who is still waiting—please stay patient and keep faith. I know how stressful the waiting can be, but hopefully your good news will come soon too.
Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences and helped me throughout this journey. ❤️
Has anyone been approved quickly for I-751? I am Canadian and have a very real marriage with lots of evidence.
Hi, I am applying to remove conditions tomorrow. My husband and I have been married 3 years now, own a home and cottage together, on am on his life endurance, we got an affidavit from the person who married us saying we are still together, and lots of photos.
I am curious how many people are being approved quickly? I know many people wait a very long time. I am fine with that as I will apply for citizenship the first day I am able to.
I feel bad for people waiting a long time as I feel many people are being judged based off of where they are from. It is a stressful time for many people.
My field office is Detroit. From my understanding, NBC can waive the interview. If not waived, it goes to a field office. I was not interviewed for my AOS.
Thank you 🙏
I-485 Reviewed Multiple Times + Transferred to Sacramento — Good Sign?
My I-485 was at the Queens, NY Field Office for about 4+ months. An officer reviewed it on August 4, then again on September 10. On September 17, the case was transferred to the Sacramento Field Office, where I live, and an officer reviewed it again on September 24.
Then, on September 26, my underlying asylum case (not the I-485) was updated to “Decision Was Mailed” dated September 16, even though the asylum was already approved in November 2023.
Could these recent reviews, the transfer to Sacramento, and the update on the old asylum case mean anything positive or be a good sign?
Has anyone experienced something similar?
"Case Required USCIS to Send a Notice" 📩
Case Required USCIS to Send a Notice 📩
I received this notice from USCIS later regarding my case.
This is only a privacy/biometrics notification explaining how USCIS uses fingerprints and other biometric information for FBI background checks.
There is no need to take any further action at this time. USCIS clearly states that if they need any additional information, they will send a separate notice.
Sharing this for others who may receive the same notice, so please don’t worry if you get one. 🙏🇺🇸
N400 Pending Since 2021
Am I the only one in this boat? I am so depressed. There was never anything not even biometrics- the case still says case received. I've submitted many service requests and congressional inquiries and USCIS responds that they are working on it. apart from suing, I don't know what else to do. Is there anyone who case too that long?
why did my green card update change to? ‘ CASE REQIRED USCIS TO SEND A NOTICE
I have never had any update on my green card except the biometric and I am 2023 December set. On my VAWA ,the only update I had was ‘notice that was sent’ which the paperwork arrive and it was for the prima farcie . now I got this update ‘ case requires USCIS to se notice’ . I’m still waiting for the paperwork to arrive. Does anyone know what that means?
