How long is the wait for parents after AP/EAD

[Vishnu Mahadev]

95% of the cases, I saw on this forum are not for parents, understandably so.
Hence the question here: What is the current estimate for 130/485 cases to get approved for parents after they get their AP & EAD. The difference in timeline comes with a fact that there is no interview most of the times for parents GC, which may cut down tremendous time for processing.

Thank you very much in advance for your guestimate.

do they have interview for EAD . if not, it doesn't make differences in process time.

I am under impression that Interviews are for Green Card, EAD is just a by-product.

Parent's process seems to work differently from Marriage cases. Based on several posts on this forum Parent's filers from August are still waiting while October filers from marriage cases seem to be getting GC. It appears that there has been some change in the recent months and Parent's cases are taking longer.

Vik Pal: It seems you did not apply for 765. One advantage of 765 is you you get EAD and on the basis of EAD, Social Security Number.
Since 131(AP) and 765(EAD) have 1 year validity and person also has SSN, GC within a year anytime should be OK.
Although, I agree with you that it is kind of sad that they are taking longer for parents over spouses. I would expect both categories getting equal speed.
