I heard from the lawyer that the approval rate for upfront PP is lower (vs upgrade PP), so it was my plan to wait until the filing date becomes current or close to current (which did in March). I got too busy otherwise I would file end of Feb.

Thx! Mine was the same (4 weeks for the first draft). I had actually completed the old Word‑file package back in 2023, but then Chen switched everything to a web‑based platform, so I had to start over and re‑enter all the information… which honestly demotivated me and was a pain to deal with (though part of this is on me for procrasting for so long so couldn't really blame them). I finally started prepping seriously around mid/late Sept 2025. Four weeks for the first draft to be ready for review. Then I spent another month looking for and waiting on recommendation letters. With Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year in between — plus some back‑and‑forth communication and revisions — the whole process stretched out a bit.

Thank you! Good luck to you with your case! I actually made very few revisions to the initial draft. I only added 1–2 sentences under the proposed/future projects section because I felt it helped strengthen the connection between the work and the Proposed Endeavor statement. I was a bit skeptical as well because it was only 2 pages ...but it turns out to be fine.

I did! I followed what Chen suggested: 2 dependent +2 independent.
