  1. I765 approved today!! (13 sept) I485 interview is on Oct 2 Hope everyone is doing well!
  2. I think most USCIS field office wont even let you in without appointment (which is why they say bring appointment notice with you) but not 100% sure Either way case is within normal processing times unfortunately. Some people get fast progress and others do not. Think processing time varies greatly due to cases going to the local field office and some are faster than others. I765 normal processing times according to USCIS page are 3.5 months. Inquiry date is late October for a may filer. Assume November-ish for a june filer. Difficult to see others get super fast progress and youre stuck though. Hopefully you get news soon!
  3. Yeah.. Comment was more so to see if anyone else was still waiting since this thread has just been people getting super fast progress & naturally when you are seeing that and no one else has posted + not had progress you would want to check if someone else understands how youre feeling etc. Everyone on this thread so far has had interview fast and already posting about their greencard. Obviously not everyone gets lucky and some people wait longer but its only human to see if anyone else is out there in your position so you can chat.
  4. Anyone else from May have no progress after biometrics? Both i765 and i485. Would be nice to talk to someone who is in same situation.
  5. Congrats! No movement on anything for me, hopefully soon lol!
  6. Did biometrics today - I had 2 appointments as I mentioned in my above comment, it went well (will go into detail due to the weird situation of having I765 filed online and seems separate processing) USCIS ASC Alexandria (Virginia), super busy, first app was 1pm, arrived at 12:45. Huge line and wait, first lady checked my docs and sent me to second line, second line the employee reviewed my docs took my ID and stamped my appointment notices - both of them, giving me a number to wait for that number to be called then proceed to the worker to get my prints done etc. After almost 2hr wait (super busy), made it clear I had 2 appointments, she took 1 set of fingerprints but 2 pictures, 1 signature (assuming signature and prints just attached to both apps), after getting in car both I765 and I485 statuses updated to "Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS" (assuming normal/automatic after biometrics completed. Fingers crossed for a speedy EAD approval
  7. The online form process will prompt you with what to upload, it has separate sections for each required document and specifies what they want. My experience, I uploaded: I765 form Marriage certficiate Appointment for biometrics i485 Receipt notice for i485 My approval notice for my k1 visa My visa page in my passport My passport identification page My latest i-94 record of entry My 2x2 passport photograph Additional note: My i765 and i485 had 2 separate biometrics notices - what I did was rescheduled i765 biometrics to the same day as the i485, just 1hr apart. I have seen some posts state double biometric apps you can attend 1 of them but bring both notices, and only have to do one, then other posts contradicting this, and as our location for closest centre for biometrics is quite a far journey, we decided that in the off chance we have to do both biometrics, would rather do it sane day and wait around a bit between the 2 apps (1hr apart) rather than have a 2nd day my husband has to take off work, drive all the way there etc. I will ask the people taking my biometrics what I can do / whether I can just do 1 or if I need to stay to do the 2nd.
  8. Hi! I am a May 2025 filer here is my timeline so far Packages (I-485 and I-765) Mailed: 20 May 2025 Arrived at Lockbox (Elgin): 22 May 2025 NOA1 (text): 05 June 2025 (only for I-485, no I-765 text yet) (So I had issues with I-765, no notices, no receipt, no payment taken, no rejection notice, upon weeks of contact and no update for i-765, after talking to tier 2 USCIS agent, as of 12 June 2025, I was advised to refile, so below is my ONLINE I-765 experience) Check Cashed: 06 June 2025 NOA1 (physical): 10 June 2025 OAC (from Live Agent):06 June 2025 Biometrics Scheduled: 06 June 2025 (status changed then a few hours later saw the notice pdf on document tab on online acc) Online Access Code Letter Received: 10 June 2025 Biometrics Appointment: 23 June 2025 Online I-765 File Submitted: 12 June 2025 Payment Charged: 12 June 2025 Below is what my account currently displays as
  9. It is because there are 2 ways to file online "File form online" and "file online PDF" (c)(9) category are only able to file online PDF (latter option) vs filling out the form online (former) Found this out myself first hand after having issues with USCIS; filed i-485 and i-765 concurrently but only received case number and receipts for i-485 yet no rejection notice for i-765, after looking into it USCIS advised me to refile. After deciding to file online since I now had my OAC and account set up, I did successfully e-file for my (c)(9) based i-765. Was annoying submitting several pdfs to a temperamental upload system but was successful none-the-less. The more you know! To the OP: yes you can file i-765 online with an already received i-485, it requires you to include your i-485 receipt notice within that application though.
  10. Be prepared for more of a 40-50 day wait just for your case to get sent to the Department of State. These stages are extremely delayed. Research your embassy and what documents it asks for, I would say be aware of preparing these if you want them to be dated closer to the interview I'd hold off because the interview is still several months away. If you live or work in Canada, it can be Montreal *only Canadian embassy that does k1* but you can change it to Philippines if you want. Be aware this forum has several threads about Montreal Embassy being widely known for significant periods of administrative processing and delays. (Search ds-5535) 3. Yes any country you've lived in longer than 6 months. So Philippines and Canada if you've lived in both for over 6 months. 4. As long as you have some form of it you'll be fine - original or photocopy. I'd recommend scanning it so you don't lose or misplace it.
  11. Same here, I misread and thought they were naturalised. Thank you to @EatBulagafor the info & correction.
  12. I 2nd this, we're still undergoing the k1 process and if I could re-do it I would definitely go spousal visa. But particularly in your situation (OP) I would say go the spousal route simply because it would make things *less* complex rather than applying for another k1. That's just my opinion, I know a lot of people here will recommend spousal over k1 anyway. As Edward said, it's a higher bar than the k-1, less expensive, no adjustment process and being able to work and travel straight away is a huge benefit.
  13. Congratulations. Please fill out your visa timeline so that it can be useful to other people
  14. In this situation, have you considered marrying and going the spousal visa route? It doesn't eliminate the potential scrutiny but in these circumstances it might be more appropriate or "better" for you considering a previous k1 with you as the petitioner/sponsor has happened. All the best!
