Wow,

Could you elaborate how you know and what you know about?
I am still waiting for them to answer my EAD expedite request.

Various people. USCIS is very backlogged. Are your biometrics complete? Did you have the company write a letter for why you are needed asap? Did you attach lease/medical bills/etc...did you write a cover letter explaining your story?

Please try to remember historically when USCIS was fast, expedite EADs were still 45 days. They were basically guaranteed 90 days. We are now around 150days -200 days as norm. People at 100+ days are trying to expedite with job offer too.

Saw your timeline, seems like an easier case. 4-6 weeks from day you faxed info should be fine. Would try congressman or USCIS late next week.

Pretty much correct...you need a story for sure.

Mine is so similar to yours. Marriage based AOS mailed in I-485 two days earlier than you to chicago Lockbox. I-130 already approved. Did biometrics on May 8th and nothing since then.

I do pray for speedy processing like yours.

Any idea why they did this?

Thank you, No I didnt get any RFE yet. And I am hoping I don't get one now. i do have an account on that website, it says "we reviewed your biometrics and still processing your case".

lets see how it goes.

All of my cases remained on that first "case received/fingerprint fee received" for a long time. In fact, my I-130 and I-765 have no updates besides that. I did my biometrics on May 11th and the only further notification I received was when my interview was scheduled, I didn't receive any notifications about them having received or reviewed my biometrics, nor did I even get that my case is ready to be scheduled for an interview, they just scheduled me and notified me on June 4th.

I would say your timeline isn't really out of the ordinary. Did you get an RFE or did you get a courtesy notice about your form I-693 (getting this subtly tells you that your I-485 isn't missing anything besides that). If you did get an RFE your timeline will be delayed, if you got the courtesy notice for form I-693 then you should assume your case is on track, you've just not received any notifications which does happen.

so, its been 65 days, my i485 status says "fingerprint fee was received" and the other 3 cases says " case was received", I did my bio-metrics on May 1st , no update since then. my field office is Hartford, is the timeline normal ?

Create an account on the following website and you'll know more about your case status.

Pretty much correct...you need a story for sure.

Wow... what a bummer!

[cali2018]

You mean are you not allowing people to request expedite with a job offer?

[MissTz1982]

No more expedites with just a job offer anymore. Guess it is totally free for all now, anyone finds a way they close it later.

So decided to file an SR since user-defined error wont go away. I try best to not annoy USCIS, but think once a month they can push some buttons. They confirmed, ?case is queued to be scheduled for an interview?, ?case is still in processing times?.

May try congressmen this week, for an EAD expedite.
