I-485 approved (EB3/SubstitutionCase/Concurrent Filing)

Hi guys,

by some unbelievable luck, my I-485 apparently has been approved.

Mine was a EB3 substitution case.

I-140/485 both filed concurrently on August 2003.

I thought I would be affected adversely by the visa retrogression for Indian EB3 applicants. But somehow both the I-140 as well as the 485 came through. The former 2 months ago and the latter a few days ago.

The only RFE I received pertained to the fact that the physician I went to is no longer on the list of approved physicians (turns out she was on the list when I visited and submitted a letter saying that). After that there were no other RFEs.

Quite a pleasant surprise, as I wasn't expecting anything to move at all.

Thanks for all of your support and advise. I wish everyone the best...
