Anyone with similar experience?

I sent in my wife's apps in late May. So far she has received her I-131 approved, I-765 approved. In July she received a RFE. We sent back a translated copy of her birth certificate. After that we have heard nothing. As far as I know the application is at the National Benefits Center as we sent all the docs to the Lee's Summit address. I called to get an update and was told that this application was a the local Los Angeles office and that the timeline said that they are processing applications from November 2007.

This means that at this rate her application will not be approved until approximately 10 months from now!!! I have been reading the comments from the other May 2008 filers and most seem to have been approved for their AOS in less than 6 months time.

Any suggestions or similar experiences? I am getting REALLY worried here.

Thanks for any help.

Info pass to find out whats going with your I-485. But remember that others have their EAD or GC doesn't mean anything. As case are different so have that in mind.

Was the application transferred to the service center or local office... if local office then expect an interview letter someday... if CSC then they will attempt to approve without interview.

Thanks for the reply. I am reluctant, however, to make an appointment using infopass as I have read on numerous threads that all they can tell you is to refer to the timelines online. Of course if you have had an experience to the contrary I would love to hear about it. At this point any anecdotal evidence would at least give me some hope. I just would hate to miss work just to go and be told that I have to refer to the timelines online.

but wouldn't that be the same office that your file was alledgedly transfered to ?
