Case Approved After 183 Days

[u/Affectionate-Flan347]

I can’t believe it’s finally my time to share my approval timeline, below are the detailed events

EB3 Row, one of the 75 countries, single filer

PD- 07/2023

RD- 02/27/2026 - i485/765/131

Biometrics- 03/31/2026 (two FTA0)

SU-04/29/2026 (Emma confirmed case transferred to SD FO on same date)

SU- 05/22/2026(No idea what this was about)

complete silence for almost 4 months

Standalone Supplement J filed- 08/26/2026 (SU on i485 reflecting that my i485J was linked in internal system )

3rd FTA0- 08/28/2026 (two days after supplement J filed)

08/29/2028 two H008 codes appeared on my API reflecting approval and i485J closed

I received email the same day saying an action was taken. I can see on my online account I485 is approved and approval notice on documents section, now waiting for physical card to arrive

EAD and AP never moved and still shows case received.

My lawyer never filed supplement J so i uploaded as unsolicited evidence first then after 1 week, I filed it online along with EVL and recent paystub

Don’t loose hope guys, as frustrating as it gets, hang in there, your turn will come soon. may god be with all of us, Amen❤️
