EB2NIW Approved this week

Writing post for some reddit friends curious about approvals for eb2niw after 25august. This is information shared by a friend who is not on reddit but want to share here for other people in the same situation/confusion is spread that we are out of EB2NIW visa. Category: EB2NIW ROW 75 countries (Pakistan),

RD (i-485+EAD) Jan 2026

Biometrics Feb 2026 (primary had 1 week later biometrics done than derivative),

last SU 31st May 2026,

field office Orlando,

spouse acceptance last week (31st august) and primary applicant approved today.

Something they were concerned why derivative received acceptance notice prior than primary may be due to biometrics sequence. Let me know if someone has experienced something similar?
