What is the average I-485 approval timing for a rural application with a project with an approved I-956F? My petition was filed in November 2024; I just received my AP and EAD back in February.

Schedule a Free Consultation with Top EB5 Visa AttorneysI-485 is adjudicated only after the underlying I-526E has been approved. Per our records, I-485 under a rural I-526E will take about three to five months for adjudication after the I-526E is approved. But it still depends because we have few clients whose I-485 took more than six months.
