Confused about where i-485 is being processed (Lee's Summit?)

[quesofresco 0]

Hi, 

 

My husband and I filed our our i-485 back in December 2016. We received our NOA on December 29, 2016. He went to his biometrics appointment and then received his EAD and AP in April. 

 

Since then, we've heard nothing. If we check the case status online, it just says "fingerprints have been received." The only office address we have is the USCIS National Benefits Center in Lee's Summit, MO. 

 

My big question is--I'm confused about where the case is being processed. I can't find any processing time information about Lee's Summit, MO. Other threads mention that the case will be forwarded to a different service center (a local office), but how do we figure out if that has happened?
 

Thank you for any help or clarification!

Your I-485 is being processed at the nearest field office to you.

 

Lee's Summit or MSC is where the AP/EAD and RFE's are sent to initially.

Thanks. So we don't get any sort of notification as to which office? Or an updated case number?

 

I ask because we're in Texas, sort of midway between a couple of field offices...

I don't believe so.

 

You could get in touch with your local congressman and ask him to find out which Field Office you're being processed at.

You can use the field office locator on the USCIS website and put in your address, the nearest to your zip code will be your field office. Also I would suggest you call the USCIS CSR and ask to speak with a level 2 officer. They have more insight into your I-485 application.

Hi,

Really sorry for bulging in like this, but please help me understand how much longer I have to wait for an interview date scheduling if I've received my work permit in September 2017 and heard nothing from them ever since?

I tried calling 800-375-5283 but it was a dead end, they just sent me be back to the website.

On the website the case status is still the same.

Does it really take that long to schedule an interview?

The documents have been sent to U.S. Department of Homeland Security  USCIS National Benefits Center 

P.O. Box 648005 

Lee's Summit,MO 64002.

Thanks a lot in advance for any helpful information!

This thread is several months old. Start a new thread you will probably get more answers there.

Back to your question it depends on the field office nearest to you. It it is in a city with a lot of immigrants chances are it will take a long time.

 

Check your case in the website below it normally has more information than the old uscis website:

https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/

 

You can also check the website below to get an idea of the processing times at your field office:

Hi, thank you so much!

I'm not sure which my field office is,  the address that I've received the card from was Lee Summit one. Is that the one?

Thank you.

Once you receive your EAD/AP, your file is transferred to your local office 90% of time, and they are the one that will send you an interview date. In rare cases, NBC in Lee Summit will continue to adjudicate your file but it does not happen often,

Since you are in Texas I believe it takes a good 12-15 months before getting an interview scheduled.

You can join other December 2016 filers here: 

Im sure they can tell you if they are still waiting or not, hopefully they will be somebody from your area that can help
