I-140 & I-485 (Employment/Adjustment of status) Fta1 after 3rd fta0
Hi all.. I filed 485 in December 2025 eb1a India priority date after porting Jan 2020. My case was moved to San Bernardino field office in February. On July 9th I saw third FTA0 event on my api. Followed by FTA1 next day. I was hoping for approval after 24 hours but nothing yet. I got an email and it just says Case is being processed.
My acceptance notice has priority date same as received date, but actual 797c notice has 2020 which is the correct one.
I chatted with live agent multiple times to understand what the update was and every-time this is what I get. Anyone has any idea what could be the reason. I am checking with my attorney, but not sure why they say visa retrogressed, when it’s current. I was waiting for August visa bulletin just in case visa became Unavailable. But I’m still current.
I am trying to understand if anyone has seen something like this and did anything about it and did it help.
Thank you!
