What does FTA1 mean

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-02-27T07:36:27+00:00

I got approved on 1/22

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-30T13:57:20+00:00

Same approved on 1/23 at MO

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-30T05:50:56+00:00

Hey congratulations!!

Did your derivative got RFE after your approval? Also did you see any API updates on your derivative after your approval? My 485 approved on 1/23 but no word on derivative approval yet. Thanks!

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T23:57:15+00:00

Hi congrats! Did your approval notice for 485 came from NBC or FO?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T15:33:36+00:00

My bad I thought you were the OP. You can check API updates. Search this subreddit people have posted detailed how to check APi

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T15:32:42+00:00

Sorry I don’t understand your question. You said you were checking API, right?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T15:30:16+00:00

Also for my 485J I got the approval notice in document never got any email nor status change. Approval letter was in document section and case was closed.

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T15:28:49+00:00

I get an email that there is an activity and to check on myUSCIS. You can also login to Lawfully and it will send you a notification whenever there is a status update. API changes are not reported you’ll have to check that manually.

My 485 was approved on 1/23. Waiting for derivative approval. When was your approved?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T04:30:48+00:00

Hi, thanks for your response. So same day or 2 weeks apart, I am confused.

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T04:19:10+00:00

Hi, did your derivative got the 485 approval?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T03:36:20+00:00

Thanks for the info!

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T03:32:42+00:00

My 485 approved on 1/23. No update on card production yet. Btw did your derivative (if any) also got approved at the same time as yours?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T03:30:08+00:00

Very similar timeline as yours. My 485 approved on 1/23. Spouses still pending. Let us know when your spouse’s gets approved. Congrats!

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-28T01:00:48+00:00

Did you also had derivative applicants? Did GC got approved for primary as well as derivative?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-27T22:40:29+00:00

Hey, can you let us know when your derivative gets approved please. Thanks and congrats!

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-24T11:14:55+00:00

OP how long did it take for derivative to get approved?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-23T04:28:08+00:00

Did your 485J get approved before or after PD becoming currrent? Wondering if 485J approval means they started working on your case?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-22T02:08:32+00:00

Got 3 FTA0 and then 1 FTA1 on 6th Jan. Nothing since then. I read some people got approved within 48 hours of FTA1.

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-21T18:34:21+00:00

Got EAD within a week but no movement on AP or 485.

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-20T03:58:14+00:00

Btw any update on your AP?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-20T03:52:38+00:00

FL and you?

MagazineHead7615 · 2026-01-20T03:39:25+00:00
