EB2 Row. Have been waiting for 3 months after the interview.
I had my Interview in July and then IO gave me a letter statinf that my case is under review. My field office is Washinfton office. I am afraid that how long will it take to adjudicate? In some cases, I have seen people waiting for even 8 months.

any information on this would be really appreciated. My case status still showw “ fingerprint review completed” which was updated 5 months back. My husband and son’s status showing “ interview completed and my case must be reviewed “. I have no clue what is happening.

I am really frustrated!

EB1A Interview NYC
We had our interview in NYC on 10/11/2018. We waited to be called for about 45 mins and then the officer called our numbers(me and my spouse). Unlike others he didn't ask us to take the oat and sign anything like attorney waiver form etc. Then he asked our birth certificate and my EVL and our kids birth certificates. He asked only a few questions about me and my job and some from my husband for his military service. At the end he said if we want to submit any other documents and we gave him our updated medical forms and two photos of each applicant. Then he said we'll be informed about the decision in mail. It took less than 10 mins and no online update after the interview.
