Asylum Based i-485

[Jimmyin]

Finally my green card is approved. Case center is National Benefits center. I tried doing a couple of inquiries to my congressman and ombudsman. Lately they approved so many asylum based I-485 cases and thank God I was one of them.
P.S. my status did not update to RFE sent. I just received the letter in the mail.

Best of luck to you all and thanks for always sharing your timeline and giving me hope while waiting.

Hello Everyone,

Did anyone received RFE after getting their GC? Today I received email notification about status update, which is RFE. But right after I received another email saying that Post office returned the email because they couldn’t deliver it. I am confused!

This is not RFE.

Please just wait and see if you received any mail.

It could be an error. After 4 weeks, you can call customer service or open an inquiry using online tool.

It is indeed confusing. I would give them a call and see how they explain it. Maybe it is a system error because you already have your green card.

Most likely, yes.

However it is recommended you don't read too much into it and just wait. Your medical might have expired you might want to get one now.

Thanks for your reply, my medical will expire June 5th .

Does anyone have experience travelling to Europe more specifically to Germany and the Netherlands with a green card and refugee travel document (RTD)? I emailed the consulates of both countries in the US and was informed that no visa is necessary for tourism. I am wondering if anyone had any issues with the airline staff or entering those countries with a RTD. Thanks

You did not get it.

Even if there are people, or most people, had no issues (which is suppose to be the case), does not mean that you will have no issues.

Nor does one or two people's bad experience mean for the majority or you will face issues.

There will always be airlines staff and custom staff who don't know the requirements. Always. Happens all the time. Unavoidable.

What's the point of you asking here? the regulations are clear. You get the response form the embassy. Just print it out and take it with you.

Hello everyone, can someone who got approved recently for I-131 RTD shares their timeliness? Mine is pending since August 2021. Thanks

Others' timelines are completely useless and meaningless to you.

Please refer to the official website for a reference as to the recent processing times. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

also you can use software such as Case Tracker to search cases filed in a similar timeframe as you.

Hi everyone,

I recently submitted my medical after RFE and my status has changed to Interview was Completed and My Case Must be Reviewed. I didn’t attend any interview however. Anyone had the same situation?
Timeline:
October 14,2019 -i485 received by TSC
January 22, 2022 - Transferred & new Office has a Jurisdiction
March 2022 - Received RFE for medical in the mail, online status never showed the request
April 2022- RFE submitted
May 13, 2022 - Interview was Completed and My Case Must be Reviewed

What is that supposed to mean?
Thank you in advance .

It means they have reviewed your case and it might be in final processing.

Please sit tight and wait, don't read too much into it.
