Still no updates, and we're 3 weeks short of it marking a year I submitted the AOS... Anyone else in the same boat? I do have my EAD, but would love to get the green card before Christmas!

 

I just passed 1 year and same for me: "Application received".

 

My cohort (IOE-09-168) has 17,437 I-130 applications.  We can see that 89% of those have advanced to at least "Processing" status which means you & I are in the ~10%-15% of applicants stuck in "Received".   On the other side, almost 50% have resolved all the way to Approved / Denied / Rejected.

 

The "Received" group shrinks by about 10/day.  As you can see from the graph, all of the cohorts stretching back a full year have some tiny portion still in that blue status, so it seems like a matter of slowly-increasing-luck as to when our number is called.

58% of applicants in my cohort are now approved- it passed the magical 10,000 number!

 

The "processing" queue has falling from 6,000 -> 5,400.

 

Only 7% of applicants are still in "received" status (including me) as we continue to sit in that long, thing blue tail of very-long-processing-times.
