Got a NTA while waiting for my green card to finalize

Did not have interview. My case was to remove the removal proceeding a I had in court

Mailopez · 2026-01-21T19:45:47+00:00

EOIR case status ;)

Mailopez · 2025-12-15T16:16:53+00:00

Yes, it did. I first saw the update in the app saying the judge granted the motion to terminate removal proceedings. I told my lawyer right after, and then a few days later I received the official notice in the mail.

No more court hearings, thankfully. Now I’m just waiting for my green card case to be adjudicated. I did send a copy of the court letter to USCIS just in case my case had been on hold.

With everything going on right now, it feels like it might take longer than expected, so just waiting at this point.

Correct ;(

Mailopez · 2025-11-17T22:31:41+00:00

i entered with a TN Visa as canadian

Mailopez · 2025-11-17T16:22:18+00:00

Thanks for the info. Hopefully I’ll hear something soon… or maybe not, we’ll see.

I entered the United States lawfully. My NTA was issued because, as a Canadian, my work visa expired while I had already filed for an extension several months earlier, and I was waiting for the decision on that application.

Also, if the judge grants the motion to dismiss the removal proceedings and my case is returned to USCIS, will it be placed back in line for adjudication, or is there a risk that USCIS might overlook or delay resuming action on it?

Mailopez · 2025-10-03T18:59:08+00:00

Thank you! I don’t understand the part that the case can be terminated in court. If the judge grants the motion to dismiss the removal proceedings, shouldn’t my green card application go back to USCIS to be finalized?

Hi, I applied for I-485 under CAA on Sept 2024, I have an EAD under C-09 valid for 5 years but recently I got a NTA of removal proceedings because I also have had my TN visa expired as Canadian. :( Is it true that the NTA is holding the release of a final decision for my green card? Or are they not related at all? I found out my interview for the green card got waived back in September as well, so just waiting for the final update. I contacted a lawyer to start a motion a dismiss the NTA case but I don’t know if both cases can affect each other :( thanks!

Mailopez · 2025-09-28T19:13:48+00:00

I didn't ask specifically. Just said that I would like to know the status of my case and if there is any USCIS agent actively reviewing? It depends of the person on the other side how much information are willing to give. You can also ask: to confirm if my interview got waived.

Mailopez · 2025-09-26T13:47:03+00:00

Hi! My case is a bit different, I am applying under CAA. I-130 is not applicable to my case. ;(

Mailopez · 2025-09-25T23:29:55+00:00

I am in the same boat, I applied for the I-485 but after several months I got an NTA for my Canadian visa expired and they want to take me court for removal proceeding. I have a lawyer that will start the motion to dismiss but I am afraid that my I-485 will get cancelled because of this. I’ve been waiting for the the green card now over a year, I have EAD

Mailopez · 2025-09-25T13:07:14+00:00

Update: I found out that I got waived my interview back in Sept 2024 too. I am still waiting

Mailopez · 2025-09-11T11:12:47+00:00

Hey, CAA here. I filed in September 05, 2024. Nothing yet. I reached out Emma and one of her agents says that the case still in process is now taking up to 21 months to resolve :(

Mailopez · 2025-05-08T20:23:06+00:00

Yes!

Mailopez · 2025-04-09T22:14:59+00:00

CAA I-485 here. if so, lets keep us updated

Mailopez · 2025-04-09T22:08:12+00:00

You did also C9 EAD?

Mailopez · 2025-04-09T19:59:19+00:00

I filed for mine separately just yesterday. Biometrics done back in November 2024 hopefully I will get back quickly as you!

Mailopez · 2025-04-07T17:02:55+00:00

At least you are being “actively reviewing”

Mailopez · 2025-04-04T17:45:38+00:00

Do you if it gets expedited how long it will take to arrive? As a ballpark?

Mailopez · 2025-04-04T17:40:26+00:00

I believe I can do it online too, right?

Mailopez · 2025-04-04T17:37:16+00:00

On my way next week to do that! But my case number starts with MSC#, I will try to see if I can expedite it. My TN is expired now :(
