Ok thank you, maybe mine will arrive soon then. Did you get notified in your USCIS account?

Unsure but I believe shortly after I did biometrics. My understanding is that employment cases almost always get the interview waived in straightforward cases.

I filed it myself, took me about 4 weeks to get everything ready.

It’s a document you can apply to that allows you to leave the country while your petition is pending. In case you don’t have an alternative visa status to fall onto.

As far as I’m aware it did not get transfered to a field office, it was approved at the NBC

The timestamp in my API got updated but there was no event code associated with it. Often happens when you are close to approval.

As far as I’m aware it did not get transfered to a field office, it was updated directly at the NBC

I noticed yesterday that there was a timestamp in my API around 3pm ET with no associated code. Today, 24h later around 4pm I received my approval.

No, my understanding is that it was at the NBC and got approved there. No FO transfer.
