@Family-So actually my case got even weirder. I went on with life thinking my I-485 was approved although the actual green card never came in the mail. I traveled overseas and when I came back to the U.S. (entry point was Seattle), CBP was awful. There was zero privacy. The agent was saying how do I have an I-551 stamp but my I-485 was still pending. He said I was never issued a green card. He went into detail about my I-360 and what was the basis of my filing because I'm not Amerasian or a widow. At one point I heard another agent say I committed fraud because I'm not a widow. It was terrible. And my daughter had to hear about the domestic violence during my marriage to her dad. Everyone was just sitting there in horror as this agent is yelling at the top of his lungs. To make a long story short my I-485 was actually never approved. The USCIS agent mistakenly gave me the I-551 stamp in my passport. After a few hours trying to figure out what was going on with my case, CBP in Seattle granted me parole into the US and crossed out the I-551 stamp. Coincidentally that day I received an email from my attorney stating Honolulu finally received my file and that the I-485 would be adjudicated within 60 days. But your advice definitely helped. So thank you again

Thank you 🙏

Haha yeah I came here with my family at 5 years old. Visa overstay. I first applied for a green card 11 years ago and it has been a rollercoaster or train wreck rather since. I could write a book like most of us here. Thank you so much for the well wishes and encouragement.

I hope so. I can’t actually believe it and probably won’t believe it until I have it in hand. I’ve been stuck here for 28 years.

Hi vawa family, I had my infopass appointment today and the agent checked the system saw my case was approved and stamped my passport with the I-551. Idk how and idk why but I’ll take it. Thanks @Family for all of your help!

Good luck @Demise. It’ll all work out and hopefully no waiting a bunch for the I-485
