Approvals of first batch of EB-2 Transfer I-485s

 

Some good news!  Our office has just received notifications that some I-485 adjustment applications have been approved by USCIS, after requests to transfer them to the EB-2 category were made.  Congratulations to these lucky clients! Finally, their green cards are literally within reach!

These were the first batch of I-485 transfer requests that we submitted in late January 2022.  Hence, it is taking USCIS about two months to process and approve them.  

Interestingly, there were no receipt notices for the I485J forms submitted, but we did receipt notices about the physical transfer of these cases to the National Benefits Center.  Apparently, USCIS is trying very hard to use as many EB visa numbers as possible for the fiscal year.
