EB2 1 Approval
I am very grateful to God for my Green card approval. A huge thank you to this wonderful community for your insights and support throughout the wait time.
My spouse and I got our approvals simultaneously. No interview no RFE. First in Kansas non local field office later transferred to Milwaukee local field office (according to Emma).
I am adding my timeline.
By God's grace your wait time will be over soon and you will get your approval.

advance parole
Just wanted to share my experience traveling with Advance Parole. ✈️🇺🇸
I traveled on June 1st and just returned to the U.S. through Boston Logan Airport. Everything went well! 🙏🏽
I was sent to secondary inspection, but they didn’t ask me a single question. They only took my fingerprints. I was there for about 30 minutes, but honestly, it was just because there were a lot of people waiting.
I’ve traveled with Advance Parole about 7-8 times, and thankfully, I’ve never had any problems or been questioned when coming back into the U.S.
⚠️ Please keep in mind that on August 13, 2026, the Board of Immigration Appeals issued a new decision called Matter of Delcarmen-Lara that may affect certain people traveling with Advance Parole. Please do your own research and speak with an immigration attorney about your specific case before deciding to travel.
Because of this recent change, I’ve personally decided that this was my last trip using Advance Parole. I’m not willing to take any additional risks, so I’ll be waiting until I have my green card before traveling internationally again.
I’m only sharing my personal experience coming back through Boston. Everyone’s immigration case is different, so please make sure you understand how the new decision could affect your individual situation before traveling. ❤️🙏🏽
Question regarding i485 for VAWA
Hello everyone, my #i360 was approved on July 15, 2025, and received an #C31 EAD.
on Augusta 19, 2025 they have approved #C09 EAD few day ago.
My i485 was moved from NBC to VTC in March after submitted an congressional enquiry.
The question that I have is, when can my #i485 will be transferred to the local field office and receive an RFE for #medical and move to final steps for scheduling i485 interview?
My i485 is pending since July, 2022.
Thanks in advance for your response.

Pre-Suit Demand Letter Before Self-Filing Mandamus — Worth It?
I’m planning to file a Mandamus myself for my delayed I-485. Before filing, I’m considering sending USCIS a short formal letter explaining that the delay is unreasonable and giving them a final opportunity to adjudicate the case before I file the lawsuit.
Is this generally helpful, or could it cause any problems or unnecessary escalation with USCIS? Would appreciate hearing from anyone who has done this themselves.
