A green card applicant is facing silence from immigration authorities, with no update on their I-485 application even after 87 days.
Application Stuck After I-130 Approval
The applicant’s I-130 petition was approved just a day after the interview. Yet, they remain unable to work as their Employment Authorisation Document (EAD) is still pending.
Delays Affect Applicants Across the U.S.
Many others report the same experience. Several applicants have been waiting over 100 days for updates, while one waited 126 days for both the EAD and I-485 approvals. The issue isn’t limited to one office delays are reported in Denver and Atlanta too.
Frustration and Uncertainty Grow
The prolonged silence has disrupted lives and plans. Applicants say they feel stuck, unable to move forward with work or family goals. They spend months waiting, unsure when their petitions will be processed.
Systemic Issues Behind the Delay
Experts believe the problem lies in the lack of clear timelines and communication from immigration offices. Without transparent processing standards, applicants remain in limbo, losing valuable time and opportunities to join the workforce.
