How long does it take to get I485 approved in most of the cases?

i follow the trackitt.com site , and have seen a trend where TSC is processing 485 in 3-4 months, and a lot of discussion by people that NSC is still processing case from june-july even thought the uscis webiste shows the processing time for both around the same. i wonder why my employer said NSC is faster.

How long have you guys been working before filing GC? I started in beginning of 2011. Sometimes I feel like I am the only one who is without GC working for more than 3 years.

@mancini

I've worked since 2013 after finishing school. My H1b did not get picked in the lottery, which turned out to be great now.

guys, how much does it cost for the whole process for GC?

Mero eghara hajar lagyo jamma budi sahit garera.

It was around $9000 for me including wife

My company is paying for me but I'm not sure if they will charge me separate for my wife.

Employer paid for mine. I paid for Premium filing of i140 which was around $1250.

Hi,

Was you wife in Nepal? Because my lawyer is saying that I can only file for my wife after my I-485 is approved. Not before that.
Please let me know.

Yes, He is correct. If your wife is in Nepal, She will be eligible only after your i-485 approval

They cashed my check (for i-485) 1 week ago. But, We haven't received receipt notice yet which makes me little bit worried. FedEx shows that the documents were delivered to TX on 16th November and after 5 days, they cashed the check.
Is it normal?

Sabai ko po GC hudo raicha ta, Mero Employer le ta gardinna bhancha ta, 2 yrs bho Job garya, Yeso Consultancy ko info cha kasailai, GC gardine 1 2 mnths mai, ali bharpardo, kharcha behorna pani tayar chu. launa sahayog gardinu paryo, agrim dhanyabad cha hai sabai lai. :)

Guys
I am little bit worried as check has been cashed 1+ week back but havent heard even a receipt notice. Is it normal?

Are you talking about TPS ?
If so no need to worry they just take their time.

fdpower,
No, I am talking about GC (i-485) as the thread subject mentions. Anyway, thanks

@Sajha keto

Normally you should get receipt by 2 weeks after checks are cashed. There was thanksgiving holiday in between so I would wait for a week more. Hopefully you get it by then. If not, I would call and check with USCIS (fdpower bro will kill me for saying that lol).

I got an update on i485 application today for EAD and AP.

Application sent: 11/03/2016 (i140-premium and i485 concurrent filing)
Receipts for i485, EAD and AP: 11/11/2016
i140 approved: 11/22/2016
EAD and AP card produced: 12/01/2016

I was under the impression that biometrics happens before they produce EAD and AP. But, I did not get biometrics appointment. Maybe they were able to use my TPS biometrics.

I received a letter from USCIS today which mentioning biometric notic for 12/15. But, I have not received the receipt notice yet though biometric notice has tracking number. I dont know what is going on here

Sajha keto

Call them. Notice may have been lost in mail or something like that. It happened to me once. I called them, and they gave me the receipt number on the phone.

@Sajha Keto,
Did you check with your lawyer? USCIS sent one copy to lawyer and other to me. But in my fren's case, they only sent to lawyer.
