I heard back from my congressman's office this morning. Both good news and bad (but mostly good).

The USCIS liaison told the staffer that my I-360 does have to be adjudicated at the Vermont Service Center and that is where it currently is, awaiting adjudication. However, it seems I have not been placed in the 14-month VSC black hole and that I should receive a decision within 30 days. If I do not, I can contact my congressman's office again and they can follow up with why the decision has been delayed.

The staffer asked me to keep him apprised of any updates and he would do the same for me if he heard any additional information from his end. It's worth noting that I have yet to receive any reply from Senator John Cornyn's office...

Either way, I am hopeful. Yes I'm at VSC but it doesn't seem like it will be a long wait.

I am very frustrated. I called USCIS and they have same status as the online one for both I-130 and I-485. It is still at MSC.

I skimmed the concurrent I-130 / I-485 trackitt for Israeli members filing for AoS and the average was 190 days from the date of filing to the date of receiving their green card.

It seems applicants from Israel may be subject to additional name check requirements, judging by some of the comments. This may explain some of the delay :(

Either way, I am hopeful. Yes I'm at VSC but it doesn't seem like it will be a long wait.

I'm happy to hear that. Any news is good news at this point. I am optimistic that you will see action within 30days.

They are seriously pissing me off. :no:

I have an ongoing argument with a friend who lives in Orange County about whether So Cal is superior to Nor Cal.

Clearly, I win. :P

Seriously though, I feel for you. Waiting sucks and I'm not good at it at all.

I did not apply EAD, Just I-485 and I-130. I am from Asia and thus the additional name check for Israel is not applicable to me.

It's not only Israel, but several middle-eastern countries that can be subject to additional checks.
