Hi! My priority date is Feb 3 2023 for I 140 and I 1485. My status here I94 ends in Dez 2 2024, after 7 years in L1. Do you think I will need to go out of the country to complete my application? It’s on premium, but the PD still in January 15th and lawyers are saying that might not move till October. If the visa bulletin move in mid September, Do you think I will have time enough to wait for adjustment of status until my I94 ends in dezember ? Thank you!!
I worked in different field to the endeavor… will there be any problem???
I have B1/B2 Visa and my LC is under process - Once the LC is approved and submit the I-140 (still outside the US). When my PD is current so i can travel to USA on my B1/B2 Visa then file the I-485 ?
Getting I-485J supplement form from employer is compulsory to file the I-485 ?
Should I file for premium processing? My PD is Feb 26, 2024 under EB1C from India
I sent my paperwork to Nebraska service center via USPS priority mail. They received it couple days later on June 17 2024 and I kid you not they printed out the reciept notices the very next day on the 18th and just 3days later the notices were in my mailbox. I guess now, as of July 2, am waiting for my biometrics appointment for my I-765.

It could be several reasons! One plausible reason could be the load of applications sorting. For some people it is taking around 6 weeks to get receipt.

Dear Yared, If it’s been 5yrs since you filed your I486 then first to check is if your PD is current or not. Also you should contact your local congressman’s office for help.

Great question! If you are waiting for I485 adjustment then you will be status until your case been adjudicated. You should not travel unless you have your AP which is advance parole.
The Concurrent Filing “Estimated Time Until Case Decision” went up from 7 months to 10 months and this increase in processing time went up once before!… Any reason for this and what is the USCIS doing for all these months?… Is the file just sitting in a queue to be accepted and the Green Card mailed out because there’s a backlog or are they looking for reasons to reject the application?
@MeetPraneet

I think the wholesome reason is the load. In 2023 based on estimates USCIS processed around a million cases. More the backlog higher the processing time!
What would happen to my Combo Card if my I-485 is "administratively closed" due to the unavailability of visas for 4th preference Special Immigration at the time of filing and fees refunded? Can I still use the Combo Card to travel abroad, or is it automatically cancelled?

Hey, my mother has entered USA on a visitor’s visa and her I-94 is valid till 04/22/2023. I have submitted an I-130 online for her and have got the I-130 receipt notice. I have mailed her I-485 application to USCIS which was delivered on March 15th. USCIS will issue me an I-485 Receipt notice once they start working on my mother’s I-485 application but that may take some time. My Question is, Will my mother be able to stay legally in USA after 04/22/2023 if she does not get the I-485 receipt notice till then. Thanks
