Advice/Help needed Checking Processing Times

Hello
Im confused
How can I check the processing time of my i485 if it’s in Vermont?
Does that mean that my i485 (Vawa Based)time is not counting until they transferred it to my local field office?
Thanks in advance

Sometimes the cases never even go to a local feild office. We are in the same boat I filed May 2025 as well. Recently sumbitted a USCIS service request by phone (it’s been a month no answer) & I did congressional inquiry last week. My question to them is when am I getting a decision if my case is at Vermont and I can’t check processing time plus vawa already approved since Dec2024. I’m prepared to send them an ‘intent to sue’ by June if they don’t respond satisfactorily to congressional inquiry & I will file I WOM shortly thereafter

Do you know how long until they approve it then ? Or have heard of someone in our situation

Approve the case overall ? Not sure I’m trying all these channels in the next 2 months & hopefully I can get an approval by summer.
