ALOHA!  our AOS interview is scheduled for Sept 12 in Honolulu , which is several months faster than the current wait time is showing.  So if you are waiting for EAD , make sure to check your 485 status regularly and you may get a nice surprise.

That's awesome to hear! Congrats! My local office is also Honolulu. I was pretty nervous after seeing their processing time. Best of luck on your interview.

Mahalo!

Is there a difference between RFIE and RFE?

The document that I received in mail was titled "Request For Initial Evidence".

But my case status online says "Response To USCIS' Request For Evidence Was Received".

 

I just assumed they were the same thing.

Have you received NOA1 and done biometrics?

Yes, everything is complete.

 

Was only asking because you mentioned that one usually continues and the other restarts. I'm trying to find out if I should expect a delay on my case or if I am going to hear something very soon.

My current timeline in mentioned below:

 

03/14: NOA1 

03/21: RFIE for B/C I-485

04/02: Biometrics completed

06/05 : USCIS's RFE received (B/C I-485)

Then I think you should be fine. I remember reading some people received RFIE like right after USCIS had gotten their package, so basically they were not even going to look at it until all the documentation was complete. But if you already got NOAs and biometrics then that means your case is progressing and probably just paused until they got your BC
