NYC Filers, I-485 sent in December 2019 or later (3)
Hi,
If any NY filers (any FOs) who had sent his I-485 in December 2019 or later, and had been already approved or re/scheduled for an interview, please share his experience.
So far, I have been following many experiences here, and I have found that there are many cases filed as early as February 2020 that have been already approved or scheduled, unfortunately, they are from different FOs (not NY). On the other hand, I continue finding more cases approved/scheduled in NY FOs, but there were filed only up to November 2019.
This is why I am asking for December 2019 NYC filers (when the I-485 is received), though my PD is May 2019 (EB-2 ROW). I quite sure that the received date has some impact too and the processing time is not entirely based on the PD.
UPDATES:
========
I just called USCIS representative to find out why I have not received a response for my service request, placed on August 21, 2020 (it says I should expect a reply by September, 12, 2020). This is the second service request I placed. It is not because my case had already reached the 12.5 months maximum for New York Field office (EB cases), but because my interview was already scheduled for April 14, 2020; was cancelled on March 30, 2020; and it has been almost half a year without any update. It was supposed to end in April 14, 2020, it makes no sense that so many months had passed with no resolution for my case.
I got some answers and time frames (from USCIS representative):
1. I have to wait at least a month for my service request response, it does not matter the expected date for response USCIS itself added to the confirmation email; So, I will have to wait till the next week (hopefully the response will have something new, and not the same "your interview was cancelled, just wait").
2. Because my field office (Manhattan, federal plaza) opened in July, 20, 2020 (more than a month later that 96% of the other fields office nation wide), I have to wait at least 90 days to receive a resolution (that could be a re-scheduled interview or waiver); So, I have to wait till October 20, 2020.
- nycDec2020, in your experience: https://www.immihelp.com/experiences/post/tier-2-within-a-few-weeks-nycmanhattan-509891/, you mentioned that it was a matter of weeks before our cases could start moving, it has pass almost a month since then, do you have some updates?
- nych42019, if you have some news, please let me know.
- nicolenyc (with an interview for October 2020), would you please share your PD and received dates?
I appreciate your help on this matter.
Thanks and regards

10 yr Green Card
What else came in the envelope with your Green card?
Did you also get your approval notices (I-485 & I-130)? Or it came before the card?
I’m just curious cause I got an update about the approval.

My journey has ended
This is my time line. I hope this can help you.
I entered the US on a B1/B2. Applied for asylum.
Married to us citizen
Field office:Oakland Park Florida.
Original filing date : March 2019.
Accepted application date . July 2019. Bcuz our attorney had sent out application twice with error.
So priority date. July 2019
First Bio appointment: 8-2-19. Usps couldn’t deliver the mail. Maybe bcuz we had move to another apartment.
Second Bio: 9-13-18
First RFE:for co- sponsor and birth certificate:9-13-19.
Couldn’t deliver by USPS maybe for same reason.
Second RFE: 9-24-19.
EAD in hand : 12-29-19
First appointment canceled bcuz of COVID-19: March 18th 2020.
Rescheduled appointment: 9-16-20.
We had interview at 10:00
9:15 pulled up In parking lot
9:30 walked in. We had been called at 10 :40
Interview went smooth. Officer question wife about how we met, the love story. Then a few questions about my asylum. Then jumped into the I-485.
Asking for co-sponsor name.
Asked for medical.
She asked if we had any questions. We said no.
She said my name will be hyphenated on the green card just like the way it is on my birth certificate. Bcuz it’s not on driver license. Told me I can choose to remove the hyphen when I am applying for citizenship.
Asked us if we don’t have any questions, we said no.
Then gave me a paper about the interview. Then said I’m gonna receive a decision in the mail.
I hope this gives hope and courage. Bcuz I know some of you been waiting for years to get an interview.
Stay strong and positive.
Will let you know when any update pop up!!!!

Concurrent Filling I130 and I485
Greetings to all,
Hi i have recently filled i130 and i485 along with other forms for my spouse. It has been 20 days since uscis has received our documents via shipment . I am getting anxious about it now as i haven't seen the checks which i sent along with the application, being cashed.
Is there anyone has applied and experienced this short of delay?
I am well aware of the fact that uscis processing this cases very slowly. but i was expecting the check should have been cached by now. Any information / comments, highly appreciated.
Thanks advance.

Advance parole process ?
Hi,
Im waiting for my Interview to be schedule.
Already received my EAD two months ago. At the beginning of the month I sent my application for advance parole, I was wondering what will be the process, what is that I’m going to receive? Will I be receiving a I 797 notice of action first or will I receive the advance parole? How long it takes, I am desperate, I will really appreciate any help
