My wife and I just submitted our EB-5 I-485 along with I-131 and I-765. The receipt date is June 28, 2022. My wife and I are from different countries (Macau and China); does this affect the timeline of processing? What is the current timeline for I-485, I-765 and I-131?

With the case number on the I-485, you can look up what USCIS is showing as the Processing Time for that Regional Center assuming the I-526 is already approved.
