Thank you for the response, but I WAS asking abt the person who sent it under category C9?! coz they have a diff location than A5. I CANt afford to pay another 400$ for a new EAD.

I called uscis this moring , they told me the usual answer : ur case requires additional review we will process in a time based on the order we received it

then asked me if i wanted to submit an expedite request ,there are 4 criteria based o nthe website.

i waited 30 mins o n the phone,,,then got hung up waited another 30 mins, to have the lady telling me the usual automated response pf ur case is still processing,,,,

btw u can also sumbit an inquiry via the website just choose refugee instead of asylee. Not worth calling unless you want to escalate the case inquiry and speak with a higher order officer

My husband called USCIS last month as his case was pending from April 2019 and they said that it is within the processing time, action can be taken only if it is outside the processing time.

Its no use calling them unless you have a reason to expediate the I-485 case unfortunately we don't have that.

Hello folks,
it's been so frustrating waiting for i485 to be processed. my timeline is as follow:
filed i485 in May,2018
biometric accepted in July, 2018
case transferred to TSC in Sep, 2018.
since then no updates. its been 27 months since i485 filed, and when calling uscis last week they said that case is NOT outside normal processing time!!
Does anyone have a similar experience?

Hey
My case is at TSC filed on JULY 02,2018
you are eligible to file for outside normal processing.
i filed my outside normal processing request. Today I received an reply that I should expect to see movement in my case within 60 days.

Hi. I hope your application will get approve within 60 days.
can you let us know what is considered "normal processing time" ? I mean when we can submit outside normal processing request?

Have they done fingerprints of your husband?

I don’t know what to say, they lie about processing times all the time. I bet they sit there drinking coffee, polishing their nails and gossiping. They don’t care about people...

So the processing time is posted on uscis website based on the office. For example currently the receipt inquiry date is sep 10,2018 for I-485 at TSC. Anyone who has filed before that Date and has their case pending is eligible to request outside normal processing inquiry

Here are more details: I tried to do an request but I get an error saying ”invalid receipt number” so I contacted Uscis earlier this week and they said that e-request can't be submitted until case outside normal processing. Following bBobby’s recommendation I called again today and they said my case is 4months outside processing time and they submitted a request for me.

Bobby- how long was the time between your request submission and the reply you got?

agree with you, the percentage for I-485 is less than 20% compare to the other types of Petitions. I did notice they never touch I-485 at all in TSC , only very few cases have been transferred to Nebraska and those lucky cases got approved or in approval process.

Today I just went to the post office and mailed my 485 application, I hope to be lucky. But Immigration Bureau will not work soon, I am really worried about the future progress! ! ! !

Have you submitted your medical exam report with your application or you have decided to submit it later?
