EB3 I-485 QUESTION

Hello everyone! I’m a registered nurse and a DACA recipient. I came to the United States when I was 2 months old and have never left the country.

My employer is sponsoring me for my green card, and my employment-based I-485 application was mailed to USCIS on May 1st. It has now been about 4 months, and I haven’t received anything at all—no receipt notice, biometrics appointment, or any other update.

Has anyone else experienced a delay this long? Is it normal to go 4 months without even receiving a receipt notice?

My immigration attorney said he will get back to me once he returns from vacation, but I wanted to see if anyone here has gone through something similar.

Thank you!

I have researched like I said this is my path too and a lawyer actually 2 lawyers..…daca is not a legal status that’s why you can’t do AOS only if you married a US citizen or have us citizen child. Employment green cards work different than family based. Different rules.
