Are all the employment-based I-485s adjudicated at the California service center? What is the current processing time? I submitted my I-485 in August 2024. Any chance of getting it approved in 2026?

EB-5 Immigration attorneysI-485 is adjudicated only after the I-526 has been approved. Normally, the I-485 will be adjudicated within 6-9 months after the approval of I-526.
