Aaaand I got my green card today! Probably won't visit this website anymore, but I'm glad that all of this is over, and I'm very thankful that I had a support group of people going through the exact same thing as me ❤️ Best of luck with all of your cases as well!

Off the top of my head:
Aug 17: Received application
Nov 24: RFIE
Jan 27: RFIE sent (medical + I-944)
Feb 18: Biometrics
Mar 15: Decisions
It was employment-based. 
 
Informed delivery says that I have three pieces of mail from USCIS today (and no packages). I thought the cards came in packages, so I'm a bit confused, but hopefully it's still what I'm hoping for!

I'm so happy to be adding to the good news pile! This morning my status for I-485 changed to "new card is being produced"!  Interview was waived, I guess, and I no longer have to worry about losing my job

Hey all, 
Our appointment went very well and the officer who interviewed us was friendly and warm. It both felt like an interview and just a formality because he seemed to already have a positive opinion of our case. He only took 2 papers out of the 2" worth of evidence and forms we brought with us in a binder. He seemed surprised that after he went over all the questions on the i-485 form that there were no errors and he didn't have to change anything. He was very impressed with our evidence we had previously provided, how thorough we were and how we presented our evidence we brought with us. He literally refused to take anything besides a copy of our sons birth cert. and his paternity test. He didn't want the updated I-864's or taxes or paystubs or proof of our relationship. I offered to provide proof of his insurance which was new, for the i-944 and he said "nah, you don't need it, its a stupid form (i-944) anyway." YES he actually said that. 😮  He said he wasn't going to split our folder into two (the one he had) because we already have so much and it's so full, so he basically didn't need anything else. He did want to look at the photos but he didn't keep any. He didn't ask any crazy questions, most of the questions were just going over the I-485 to make sure we didn't miss anything. He asked who our joint sponsor was, he asked about the age of our son and when we met, how we started talking, when we started dating, how many children I have (he asked me that), if I ever met his parents what their names are and where they live, and asked how long I was with him in Australia. All the questions were really easy and he wasn't trying to trick us or find a reason to deny us. He told us they don't do approvals on the spot and said we should know in 1-2 days. About an hour and a bit after the interview our status finally updated to "New Card Being Produced!" YAY!!

Soooo happy to see movement for everyone! I kind of thought that it would be another 6 months after biometrics, what a pleasant surprise! I had my biometrics a week ago, no changes, but keeping my fingers crossed!

Mine and my daughters green cards were mailed out today!

I had my biometrics exactly 1 week ago. Today my status for I-765 changed to "New Card Is Being Produced" 🚀

It will be the picture on your green card! Prepare as necessary   

Wow! Yes, my appt letter says that it's a Code 3. So it looks like I might not need another one, since Code 3 is way more strict than Code 2 required for I-765. Fingers crossed, because it's really far to the ASC office from where I live, I hope I don't have to make 2 trips! Thanks for the link!

Congrats on the code 3 biometrics! 
If its a code 3 you should be fine and wont need to do another biometrics appointment. 

I've been lurking on this thread for about 2 weeks now, and I figured that I'd add my timeline.

Maybe because of the labour day holiday, the cheque posted AFTER I received my notification. I'm in EB2 (Phoenix lockbox) category, I-140 already approved, and sent mine in without the I-944. Hope this helps someone!
