Employment-based case

- Filed I-140 November 2024 (PD Nov 1st)
- I-140 approved December 2024
- Filed I-485 and I-765 concurrently March 12, 2026
- Biometrics Appointment April 16
- 3x FTA0 on April 16 for my I-485 [CORRECTION]
3x FTA0 on April 16 for my I-765
- Silent update on May 12 for I-485 and I'm still waiting [CORRECTION]

Anyone had a case similar to mine? If yes, what should I expect next?

@A_W1 A I apologize because I made a mistake. I checked again and turns out I have 3x FTA0s on my I-485

Have you seen the I-485 Filers Excel Tracker on Reddit? it’s very informative. You get to see cases around your timeline and how they’re progressing.

I do have a Reddit profile, but I have not seen the Excel Tracker you're talking about. Is there any way you can share it with me? Like, do you want me to share my Reddit thread?

You just need to locate the March ‘26 tab and fill in your details or just track what’s happening to other cases filed around your timeline.

my I-140 PD is 04 Nov 2024, approved in January 2025. Filed I-485 along with I-765 in March 2026 and had biometrics on 17 April in Baltimore. 2 FTA0 in I485 and 3 in I765. No update since then in API. I just inquired today 15 May 2026 from live agent, he said my case is in NBC processing normally and moving forward, and my interview is waived for now. I’m also from 75 countries but not from 39 ones. My profile is almost similar like you even then the timeline

@SS KL Thanks for sharing this 👍 I haven't inquired from the live agent yet, but I surely will be doing so on Monday

Quick follow up question: How do I know my field office? Any idea?
