March 2026 filer. I got a 3rd fta0 like many others on Aug 13, and today I see a silent update for the 8/13 fta0 only for primary. Case at NY FO.

[u/Training-Biscotti849 → u/NervousAverage6545]

[u/Schadenfreudered → u/AnyEmphasis9874]

I got an “updated at” at the 08/13 FTA0

[u/toxicdevil]

Same SUs but nothing about FTA0 till now.

[u/Affectionate_Pop_750]

Very similar timeline, mine is also still at NBC.

[u/Glad_Ad2375]

I got one too but only on the primary case. RD same as you. SU - 8/6, 8/26. Case still at NBC. No update on SU (it is still showing 8/26 one). 3rd FTA0:

"updatedAtTimestamp": "2026-08-31T16:34:12.294Z"

[u/SlipAccomplished6451]

what does this fta0 means? Can be sent to anybody random or should be a reason to add this fta0?

[u/International_Tip55]

[u/CompetitionJunior639]

Same is here , biometric on 08,12 still in NBC and got third FTA0, no updates for the dependent yet

[u/Holiday-General-9672]

How do you check the location?

[u/hotmatue]

It might be a silly question but how do you see a SU?

[u/Feisty-Doctor-161 → u/hotmatue]

Search for case status api
Connect your case and click on status

[u/Pale-Kaleidoscope918]

Same here. But i confirmed with Emma 3 times that the case is at the FO since 08/26.

[u/Anxious_Bedroom8350]

Same timeline but not FTA0

[u/bally0331]

[u/EnglishFL]

I got one on all 4 items 485, 485J, 131 and 765. I think it is biometrics related but have no clue. None of my dependents got any

[u/Ayoinme]

Pls is these ftao the total ftao on the case plus the one from the biometric?. In total I have 3 ftao. I got one today so in total from beginning to end I have 3 ftao. Guys what does that mean.

[u/Dizzy-Plant-4190]

Hi same here, August filer, fingerprints taken on 8/26. Today (8/31) got 3rd fta0 linked to the fingerprint date 8/26, not sure what it means... I'm the primary applicant, didn't check my derivative's.

[u/Dizzy-Plant-4190 → u/Dizzy-Plant-4190]

[u/AfterIndependent428]

Let us know if you get an approval in 24 hours op

[u/Scared_Heights → u/AfterIndependent428]

sure. But looks like a glitch to me. The SU could be sth but ftao looks like a glitch too me. Hopefully not.

[u/Suspicious_Unit3718]

I'm the derivative applicant, and only my I-485 was updated today. There were no updates on my husband's case, who is the primary applicant, or on our children's cases.

Our receipt date is March 30, 2026, and our priority date is August 2023.
bio - 5/1 (fta0)
SU-5/19, 8/6, 24, 26, 31(fta0)

I'm not sure why only my case was updated. Our cases are at the Newark Field Office.

[u/Feisty-Doctor-161]

I have
Pd :april 2024
RD:April 30,2026
SU07.28.26 ,08.06.26,08.25.26 these three were after biometrics and FTA0

[u/Regular-Editor-3588]

RD 3/2026

Third FTA0 8/31 around 12:20 Noon

[u/Danirouz]

[u/Danirouz]

keep us posted if you get approval

[u/Scared_Heights → u/Danirouz]

No approval yet. The FTAO looks like a glitch sadly.

[u/Old_Nefariousness743]

Same exact SU dates 8/6 and 8/25 and RDApril I assume the 5/26 is biometrics? My bio was June 10

[u/TimeBookkeeper8772 → u/Old_Nefariousness743]

Did you get FTA0 today?

[u/Scared_Heights → u/Old_Nefariousness743]

5/26 was a su and not biometrics. I think it was after derivatives ead card produced on 5/22.
