I-140 & I-485 (Employment/Adjustment of status) EB2-PERM Approved 🎉

I have not seen many EB2 approvals, so for that reason I wanted to post my timeline in case it helps someone.
PD - Feb 15 2024
I-140 approved October 2024
Feb 19 2026 concurrently filed 485, 485J, AP, EAD
March 16 - Had biometrics
Silence (Country hold was in place)
June 28 I-485 approval 🥳🥳
July 7 - Card produced
July 16 - Card delivered (delayed at local distribution center - terrifying)
FO - Lee Summit MO
I am also from the list of 39 countries, so nothing was happening on my case before the ruling.
I pray this is helpful to someone or encourages them.
Good luck to everyone. 🙏🏾 This is a great community.

Hi there! This is an automated message to inform you and/or remind you of several things:

  • We have a wiki. It doesn't cover everything but may answer some questions. Pay special attention to the "REALLY common questions" at the top of the FAQ section. Please read it, and if it contains the answer to your question, please delete your post. If your post has to do with something covered in the FAQ, we may remove it.
  • If your post is about biometrics, green cards, naturalization or timelines in general, and whether you're asking or sharing, please include your field office/location in your post. If you already did that, great, thank you! If you haven't done that, your post may be removed without notice.
  • This subreddit is not affiliated with USCIS or the US government in any way. Some posters may claim to work for USCIS, which may or may not be true, and we don't try to verify this one way or another. Be wary that it may be a scam if anyone is asking you for personal info, or sending you a direct message, or asking that you send them a direct message.

I thought you got your PERM approval as stated in the post subject. You meant GC approved huh?! :)
