Charleston FO

I-485 (General)

Hello! just wanted to share my timeline to give a bit of heads up for those with the same field office as mine :)

Entered the US through K1 last feb. Applied for both EAD and AOS but EAD never came.

PD: March 27, 2026
Biometrics: May 04, 2026
Interview Letter: July 21, 2026
Interview: August 27, 2026
I-485 Approved a day after interview! August 28, 2026

The interview was pretty quick. The lady was really nice and we got asked the Yes or No questions from the form i-485 but after that she basically told us we were approved. didn’t ask any personal question about us and told us our case was pretty straightforward. told us to expect the online approval within 24 hours and to expect the GC to arrive in 30 days or less.

our interview was around 11:30 but we came like around 10:45 and we were allowed to enter despite being early. we got out of the building 11:30.

our AOS got approved around 12nn the next day!

will update when card gets produced and when i receive it.

best of luck to all 💘
