Marriage based AOS (married to US-PR)
Hello All,

Texas resident here. I filed my I-130 on 12/4/18 and my case is being handled by California SC. My RD date for 765, 485 & 131 is 06/23/19 NBC.

Yesterday I received an update saying my I-130 was transferred to another office. I am hoping this means they are reviewing my files. Has anyone else exp this?

Also, would I have to wait for them to decision my I-130 before proceeding with my 765 & 485 petition?

Thank you in advance and best wishes to everyone.

Expedite request denied i765
Today makes it exactly 273days since I filed, over nine months. No EAD, i made two service requests nothing happened. After 8.5 months I made an expedite request via emma based on financial loss to a person. Next thing I got a mail to fax job offer which was never mentioned during chat via Emma. So I sent bank statement,lease ,Insurance ,phone bills and printed out job inquries made by some employers (since i can't get job offer without EAD). So this morning i got a mail that the expedite has been denied,they said I couldn't provide evidence of emergent need. It's over nine months already since i filed. This is really unfair

EAD status "Card Being Produced" to "Fingerprint Review Completed"
Hello Everyone,

I've been lurking here for a bit and found it very helpful to see your experiences..thank you!

Anyways, my I-765 status was updated to "New Card Being Produced" yesterday...so I was very happy! Then today, I checked the status again and it was updated to "Fingerprint Review Completed" Is this normal? (I check the case history and it still shows "New Card Ordered" under the history and current case status as "Fingerprint Review Completed" (all on the egov website...the myuscis website case status is not up to date)

So is my card actually being produced? Or is that an error and I'm still under Fingerprint Review Completed?

My timeline is below:

Nebraska May EAD
Hi all - I've been a silent reader for nearly five months while waiting for my EAD to process. Your experiences and advice have been so helpful in getting me through what we all know is a stressful process. Hope my timeline provides some insight/hope:

-May 15, receipt date for I-765. Sent to Nebraska service centre
-June 21, Biometrics
...Summer spent waiting. No news...
-Week of Sept 15, we were getting anxious. Lawyer called service centre. We were told to just wait.
-Sept 20, status change, our 1-485's were transferred to a new office. My 1-765 remained in Nebraska. Lawyer informed us that they are likely transferring to a local office so they can eventually schedule the interview. I got excited because I figured it meant that someone had looked at our file, so maybe that meant the EAD would be reviewed? This is the same day they pushed back processing times again, which was discouraging.
-Sept 23, my case was updated to show that a new card was in processing!!! What a feeling!

I just want to commiserate with everyone and say: what a stressful thing to go through! The system is so complicated and so opaque... and not being able to check on your case until it falls outside of normal processing time - which is nearing 6 months or more plus we'd been already waited for years before that - it's really tough! It's why we're all on this forum. Because we can't get answers or information anywhere else!

Thanks again for sharing. I hope those waiting get answers soon. I'm sending out warm thoughts and good wishes to you.

Waited 8.5 months as it says on uscis processing times to file for SR so I did on aug 1 and it went for 30 days unsigned so on sep 3 i contacted tier 1 thru chat and she opened another SR and I also on same day opened ombudsman case assistance inquiry and today i got response from them:

Dear Sir or Madam,

However, USCIS is unable to provide a specific timeframe for resolution of the case. Our office will continue to monitor USCIS’ progress on a regular basis until there is a specific action or resolution. We will contact you as soon as we receive an update from USCIS.

Did anyone get answer like this from them???? Is this good or bad ???

The status of this service request is:

Your case is currently under review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly.
