Has anyone who filed an I-485 with the Chicago Lockbox gotten a receipt notice that shows a projected processing time on it? My wife's receipt just has the instructions for biometrics/fingerprinting. Her EAD receipt does have a timeframe on it though. Is USCIS now so backlogged on I-485 processing that they're not making any processing projections at all? If I go by the processing dates for the DC office the interview won't be until summer of next year at the earliest. That's a long time to wait for just a conditional green card. They might as well just let the backlog grow to two full years. It would save them the hassle of processing the petition for removal of conditions.
 
My I-485 NOA projects 120-180 days. According to various people, it may or may not be accurate anyway.
