But I saw one post someone his date was march 31 he got green card but I don’t know anything whose date is early April he or she get green card if you guys knows anybody please share updates here thanks

Great folks, I'm feeling somehow anxious, this process is not for the weak. Let's share each other for any updates on the same. Cheers,

my PD was March 23. submitted my I-485 in July 24 and just got the GC. 8 months after sending i485, no interviews, no RFE, no office transfer. I am sure yours will be approved soon.

@Mariana o did you see status change before getting gc? may I ask what was the last status you see before getting gc? my pd is Mar 13 2023 and current status is fingerprint was taken in Aug 2024. case is in NBC

@Mariana o when did your final action date became current and what state is your field office at?

@C S My friend also got his green card recently. First status changed to New Card is Being produced and very next day Case was approved and mailed

@C S before getting the “new card is being produced” message, it was stuck on “Fingerprints were taken” for 7 months. I got the card about a week after the “new card” message. @olu mikk my office was NBC and my case became current in July 24.

@Mariana o I meant your final action date: the date when visa became available for your priority date not the filing date: the date you submitted your I485 for adjustment of status?

@Zack Alim was your friend approved without an interview ? was he NIW petition based ?

@olu mikk my PD and filing happened in July 2024.

@Ahmed Ah yes without interview, NIW

My PD is Mar 6, 23, i-485 filed to NBC in July 24, fingers updated in Sep 24. Then no update. I know many have the same issue.

@Andrew Lee I know some one who's Priority date was 31 March 2023 and approved 485 by 2nd week of February 2025 after becoming current on January 2025

@Neelum Yousafzai let me know if you have any update as my pd is April 5.

I am also April 05 PD and filed for AOS in October.. status still on fingerprints taken.. I think status might change any moment now

@Kuki Elanol seems like alot of us are in the same cohort. let's keep each other updated here.

@Mariana o oh okay I see, alright thanks

@Golam Mohammad Zilani still no update hopefully IA next month will get it

Have you guys seen the app saying how only a few thousand cases were approved this month compared to last month? Is this a glitch?

@E N We are on same boat with same date, let us know each other if anything change. @Neelum Yousafzai thanks i will inform you as well

@Golam Mohammad Zilani yes sure and if you get any update regarding April approval please share with me thanks

@Golam Mohammad Zilani one guy got approval 20 April pd

@Neelum Yousafzai is it approval for EB2 NIW or EB1?

@Golam Mohammad Zilani I think eb2 niw but I am not sure just I saw post

@ one guy his pd is 1 April he also didn’t get approval still waiting like us you 5 mine 7 but April 20 is approved do you think this information is correct is it possible they make big jump ? or also matter nationality of applicant? if you have any information please share

@Andrew Lee you should check with Emma my friend his pd was march 10 he got green card in November 2024

@Neelum Yousafzai I don't think it should be like that or he/she is so lucky. Because they always maintain a sequence, otherwise they wouldn't say to follow a visa bulletin final action date and I believe we are. I mean 1, 5 and 7 PD is for the rest of the world. Did you ask him/her about PD date confirmation or is it EB2 or EB2 NIW? There are some differences, although both categories are in the same way as the following final action date. However, sometimes people process by consular (outside the US) and get a letter of visa availability, and they think it's approved. So a lot of circumstances happened. On the other hand, people are also asking for expedite due to financial struggles or any other issues.

fyi, I also see one who gets the GC at 1/28/2025 with pd 2/22/2023 and this leads me to expect that approval is coming soon for the folks have 03/2023 PD as I was thinking that it is processed sequentially. But now I got confused as I saw the approval cases with later PD than me ; 03/13/2023(GC on 03/xx/2025) 03/15/2023(GC on 10/31/2024), 03/31/2023(GC on 02/2nd week/2025), 04/20/2023 (GC on 03/xx/2025).

my pd is 06/09/2023; i-485 submitted 11/2024; biometrics in 12/2024. Still waiting.

my PD is June 14,2023. I have a friend whose PD was April 6, 2023 and his I-485 approved on March 20th. keep sharing your updates.

hi folks did anyone get approval PD April 2023?

@Golam Mohammad Zilani hi did you get approval ???

@Neelum Yousafzai not yet? whats your update?

@Golam Mohammad Zilani not yet no update same status

@Kamil Qureshi @Golam Mohammad Zilani Hi guys did you get any update regarding approval? Could you let me know when did you submit I485 Petition to USCIS? I submitted documents to uscis November 22, 2024 and PD April 7 2023. I checked with Emma she said your application is on process but I don’t know when you will get approval

@Neelum Yousafzai I submitted I-485 on Nov 28, 2024. got ead in Jan. try following https://www.casestatusext.com and see people with same receipt are getting approval or not.

@Neelum Yousafzai no updated yet, hopefully will get some update by this month

@Golam Mohammad Zilani hi how are you today I checked with Emma she told me your case is in Houston field office since April 3 , do you know about this field office how long they takes time to review case? because she told me your case are not reviewed by officer yet

@Neelum Yousafzai it is important that It will be reviewed by someone. I believe you will get your news by this month. But sometime it depends on field office's work load.

@Golam Mohammad Zilani I hope so but we can’t say anything let’s wait ad just pray really surprised sApril pd no one get approval so far

All again, is it not a high time to start seeing actions/approvals on any of April 2023 pd cases? OMG.

@Neelum Yousafzai I saw someone posted in the lawfully an hour ago for his GC approval. his PD is May 05, 2023. I know someonelse from May got approval , too.

@Kamil Qureshi yes someone posted here as well I think it depends upon country to country and state as well nbc or field office. my case now is in fo but no update and three other April cases are also in fo but we are all waiting

@Golam Mohammad Zilani 5 April guy got approval today his case was transferred in Chicago Field office march 23

sorry 6 April his case was transferred in Chicago fo on march 27 2025

@Neelum Yousafzai whats your update?

@Golam Mohammad Zilani no update today again checked with Emma case is in processing in FO what about you? where is your case any update?

@Kamil Qureshi today I got RFE regarding marriage proof etc even I am principal applicant that RFE did not update in online case status and doesn’t know Emma so everyone watch both mail and online case status

@Golam Mohammad Zilani Today I got RFE by mail but online system doesn’t change

@Neelum Yousafzai I submitted both marriage and family relation certificate while filing I-485 to avoid rfe. I provided as much document as I could in the beginning to avoid hassle. hopefully you will get it soon after submitting ur docs

I hope I asked from my friend he said only marriage certificate is enough but depends upon officer for his case having no RFE and approved in 4 month I485

just wanted to update on this post (with many people on similar timeline as me) that I am finally greened! @Golam Mohammad Zilani I recall you have same PD as me (April 05, 2023). All the best folks.

@E N congrats, keep in touch for naturalization Process after 4 years 9 months countdown. we will make a group to share everyone experiences and steps by steps.

@Neelum Yousafzai sorry to hear about it. but dont worry gather following docs and send to them by post and upload it thorugh online and after one week keep asking about.documents to.emma. in my experience one of my elder borther faced the rfe as he married just 2 years ago so he submitted marriage photo, certificate and Nikahnama (muslim tradition), family photo, acknowledgement from different friends, family and teachers those who knows about their marriage, any joint account, joint insurance, recent any get together or group photo during recreation any long trip etc. best wishes for all of you. keep in touch and remember next steps is naturalizations.

@Golam Mohammad Zilani In sha Allah I sent all documents regarding marriage proof but good thing they mentioned should send response asap we need to decide soon before fiscal year tomorrow they will receive my mail

@Neelum Yousafzai I just chat with Emma and she told me that my case was transferred to San Juan (puerto rico) field office on April 23rd. hope it will come soon. do you know from May or June priority date getting approval.

@Kamil Qureshi good luck hopefully soon you will get good news I think may 4 and may 5 pd already got approval most of the time after 2 or three week of transferring they will get approve or need any further evidence my case was transferred according to Emma April 3 and they sent me RFE notice on April 21 but still my online status no update regarding RFE I was wondering why they didn’t update online status just I got mail on Thursday

@Neelum Yousafzai I saw someone posted two days ago that his I-485 was approved with PD of May 30, 2023.

@Kamil Qureshi I think you get good news soon

@Golam Mohammad Zilani @Neelum Yousafzai any updates yet to your side? nothing here April 12 2023pd with i485 filing end of Oct 2024.

@Kuki Elanol I sent response to RFE on April 30 still no update online case status even they mentioned in letter send response asap because soon we will take decision but nothing yet updated very frustrated situation even online case status is nothing showing about RFE and response is received I asked to Emma she mentioned might be officer is working on RFE and response with him but I can’t see any RFE or response in system

@Kuki Elanol you should ask ema about update, because I know some people whose pd is june 2023 and they got their GC approved last week. I have a plan to make a group for next step naturalization those are approved on April or will be approved by May.

@Neelum Yousafzai dont worry keep patience once they will get your package then you will give you approval soon

@Golam Mohammad Zilani our package was delivered on April 30 at 10:20 am and someone signed for it. but online case status is nothing changed not for RFE not for response to RFE. I hope soon will get approval

@Golam Mohammad Zilani did you get approval of I485?

@Neelum Yousafzai yes, dont worry you will get soon

@Golam Mohammad Zilani @Neelum Yousafzai it's my turn to celebrate. No more walking up from sleep after midnight to check on my cases. Cheers,

@Kuki Elanol congratulations

@Neelum Yousafzai Thank you!
