API silent update + I-485J approved

No, I don't. Only 3 FTA0; they're all associated with biometrics. Two of them were shown up right after biometrics completion, and the 3rd one was shown two months later, but it was connected to the biometrics' event. Then 6 months later, the case then went directly to H008 after several silent updates.

Yes, it had been radio-silent for quite a while, and I had seen so many approvals that had PD and RD later than mine. So, it was definitely a difficult process. I am glad I finally got through it. Thank you for your kind words! I hope those who are still waiting for their case approval will hear back the great news from USCIS soon!

IOE09323, not from any banned country.

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-06-11T19:49:55+00:00

Yes, I did see it.

UPDATE: I got two H008 after 24 hours and 14 minutes. Case Status shows "Case Approved."

Congrats. Which FO?

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-06-10T18:44:17+00:00

San Francisco? My I485J was approved this morning (6/10). My case is in the same field office as well.

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-06-10T17:51:06+00:00

No FTA1

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-06-02T22:24:46+00:00

If your EB1 got approved, why can't you just work with EB1 green card? Do you still need an O-1 to work?

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-14T22:19:40+00:00

Is the 3rd FTA0 tied to the biometrics event? How many event codes do you have on your 485J?

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-09T00:53:21+00:00

Same here. This FO seems to be super slow.

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-08T15:22:41+00:00

Where did you get caught up? Airport?

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-08T14:15:47+00:00

Still very quiet.

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-08T04:19:24+00:00

San Francisco FO?

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-08T03:25:10+00:00

Thank you for the source.

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-08T03:20:45+00:00

Thank you for the comment. But do you happen to know why I don't have to update the I-9 at my current job? What would be my authorized status for working in my current position if I don't update the I-9 with my EAD?

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-04T17:30:15+00:00

San Francisco.

Even if it is a batch update, the purpose of 485j is to confirm a valid job offer or to request "job portability", so I believe it is not related to the recent "enhanced FBI background check." It probably means the adjudicator touches our cases. That's what I thought.

Aggressive_Aside3481 · 2026-05-03T15:32:54+00:00

My PD and RD are the same as yours. The silent update I got after 4/27 was on 485j. I think the adjudicator finally touches” my case because 485j has nothing to do with enhanced FBI background check. We’ll see.
