Hi everyone,

I'm new in this forum, does anyone know what are the chances to get rejected on the I-485 for a k-1 visa holder that got married and filed everything on time.

Thank you for the answer in advance.

As long as you send and have all the required documents and you're prepared for the interview, if you have one, there shouldn't be any problems.

Thanks misasale! My status change was super quick. I would have expected to wait 2-3 weeks for that.

I did get a text/email bc I had signed up for it on the USCIS homepage. I don't think you get them if you haven't -

unlike the first texts/emails after you had mailed your package.

Do you get a case status update saying they've mailed you the bio appt or does it just show up in the mail? I'm expecting mine any day now and was just wondering if the online case thing would indicate if it's been mailed?

Thanks everyone for the congrats! Now I hope I don't have to wait the full 30 days until the paper notice shows up.

@Uhoh: Unfortunately, they don't show online when the letter is mailed out or which appointment date and time you were given.
They just tell you in the NOAs/status updates that you can expect it.

But I see you already have another task to tackle. I somewhere read in this forum that USCIS does that sometimes - changing addresses -,

although you haven't submitted a change. I am sure you can sort it out,.

Yep I spoke to a very helpful Tier 2 who reassured me all was well with my case and to ignore the email. He said the most important notices will be the ones mailed to me.
