What is the general timeline for an I-526 approval for a standalone or direct investment right now? I applied in January 2024, and my status is still current. I even had my EAD approved within 4 months. Should I have had the I-526 approved already and sent out as per the investment plan mentioned in the business plan? My attorney says the delays are expected, but it’s been a year.
