Hi Everyone! I have been a silent reader on this forum for quite some time now, and I appreciate all those who have shared their experiences and timeline. I wanted to share mine as well, so it could help the next person!

Approval Notices for i130,i485- Oct,13, 2020 in the mail
Interview Day
Our appointment was for 8:15, we arrived at 7:45, went in at 8:10, went through screening, and then they took my husbands pic, and his fingerprints, and then we took a seat. Around 8:35, the IO called his name, so we went in, she swore us in, and then she asked for our id's and information on the i130, and i485. She asked me(the sponsor) how we met, our story, we brought alot of evidence(tax returns, car ins, affidavits, life ins, bank statements, credit cards, dental ins, albums, 200 single photos, plane tickets from trips we took) she asked what we have to show our bona fide marriage, we handed her everything, but she only looked through the photos and then asked my husband the yes and no questions, and about his F1 and which degree he did. She was friendly, and opened up after a little while. At the end of the interview she had my husband sign and asked us if we have any questions. She told us that the GC would be a 2 year one since we were married less than a year. She didnt give us any paper, and we left. The whole interview took about 25-30 mins. We did not get any status updates online, but to our surprise, we recieved the approval notices in the mail just 5 days later! Now we are waiting for the GC!
Good luck to everyone! Thank you for all the help!!!

After 25 months of waiting today I received the approval notice for my GC
Hi all,
Its been a longgggggggggg journey! 25 months to be exact.
Got married in August of 2018, applied in September of 2018, and interview was held in spring 2019. Check my profile out for more details.
After 20 months of the interview, three weeks ago, two uscis officer came to our apartment at 9am. I was there alone and my wife was at work. They asked questions about our marriage, my asylum and they took pictures. I asked them if they want me to call my wife and ask her to come home, they said no, that's ok. I answered all of the questions truthfully, and both officers were really nice and seem very satisfy with my answers. He literality told me that he believes us because everything looks normal and he will forward his report back to the main officer in two days.
Last week, the officer who interviewed us in 2019 called my lawyer to forward the asylum application withdrawal form to me so she can approve us. I singed the withdrawal form and she approved us on the same day and I received the approval notice today! Now, I am waiting to received the actual card in the mail.
Good luck to those who are waiting to hear something back after interview.
Cheers,

No update until today I have submitted 4 service request, I have also reached out the Congresswoman in my state twice but nothing has not happened in my case. Now I’m renewing my third Employment authorization document which I submitted the papers 4 weeks ago and I have received the receipts already and a separate document informing me that USCIS will reuse my previous fingerprints... BUT TODAY I RECEIVED A CALL FROM USCIS WHICH BECAUSE I WAS WORKING I TRIED TO CALL THE NUMBER BACK AND SYSTEM RESPONDED THAT, THIS CANNOT ACCEPT INCOMING CALLS
MY QUESTION IS WHAT COULD THAT CALL BE ABOUT?
And by the way it’s marriage based adjustment of status usc...ANY INPUT WILL BE VALUED THANKS

I-485 Transferred to NSC
Hi All,
EB3 PD August 2019, RD December 2019. Had my interview on July 1st but case status was last updated March 26th as " Interview Cancelled". Recently spoke to an agent via Emma Chart, she informed me my case was transferred to Nebraska Service Center on 09/27/2020. I heard usually case moves to NBC, any idea why a case would move to NSC?
