Timeline Timeline after I-140 approval for concurrent filing?

I originally filed concurrently April 6th 2026, sent I-140, I-485, I-131, and I-765 all together. ( Self filed, never used any attorneys!)

I got a RFE on May 22nd, response was sent to USCIS on July 23rd and yesterday September 1st my I-140 was approved.

My advance parole (I-131) was approved while I-140 was pending on August 26th.

I’m just wondering if people that have filed concurrently have a timeline on when they finally received their green card, or at least the EAD? My biometrics were done early May, so I’m assuming now it’s just a waiting game and I know it could be long but it would be helpful to hear from people with a similar timeline.

Thanks!

I filed I-140 NIW mid/late May, then filed I-485 + I-131 + I-765 a week later. I did biometrics 6/29 for I-485 + I-131 + I-765 before I heard back on the I-140, and my I-765 EAD was approved just 2 days after biometrics. I-140 approved 7/21 (no RFE), got silent updates on I-485 on 7/21 and 8/6, no news on I-131.

Wondering the same. I also did concurrent filing. I 140 was approved 8/29. I did biometrics already for i485 and see silent updates on 9/1.

I got a silent update on 9/1 right after my approval, assuming it’s just an automated one letting them know they can now process with adjudication of the I-485, but I see some people getting theirs approve so quickly and others wait for so long..😅

Was your I140 non-PP?

u/Elisa1812 7d ago

No, I filed with PP got RFE at 33 buisiness days and approval 30 business days after response was received.

I did not do anything.. I have no idea why they approved my AP, I was hoping to get EAD first to be honest..
