prostar Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 My friend and his spouse had their I-485's approved within 3 months of filing. PD April 2006. I-485, EAD, A/P filed in end of Oct 2010. I-485 Approved Jan 13, 2011. EAD and A/P voided. This is a true miracle by any standards!! Those in line - Don't lose hope! Things will progress!

Attorney_19 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 This is wonderful news for the applicants. It is true that USCIS processing times for I-485s being filed with current priority dates has improved significantly. The processing time is generally within 6 months. Please note however, that if the I-485 is approved in less than 180 days, then the applicant does NOT have AC21 portability. The applicant should continue to work for the green card sponsor after the I-485 is approved. Link to comment

prostar Posted January 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi Attorney19, thanks for the info about AC21. Is there a time limit like 1 or 2 years after which GC applicants who got approved under 180 days of filing can use AC21 or switch employers? Link to comment
uss01 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hi Laila, which USCIS service center was this at? Texas? California? Or Nebraska? My 485 was sent to Texas back in early Decembrer and it seems to be much slower than Nebraska.

Laila79 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 US01 - This was at the Nebraska center. The online status were updated a week later than the actual notice was receieved by the attorney. The other interesting thing is that a couple of days after the green card petition was approved we also recieved approvals for the EAD and AP! Link to comment
