USCIS I-130 Approval Coronavirus?

Has anyone seen of any movement on spousal visa applications in the past few weeks? We know that USCIS offices are closed, but any info on the current work setup of USCIS employees? Are they working from home? We submitted our application in September 2019 so we are in the window of approval now, but are left wondering if cases are even being looked at right now?

The offices are not closed. They are not conducting in-person services. A solo I-130 packet does not require anything to be done in person (except in very rare cases where the petitioner gets interviewed).
