Topic: i-485 processing time - USCIS estimate vs reality

I have received the approval notice on February 18th. It took me about 5 months; a month longer than the USCIS estimate, but was not a long wait.

Topic: i-485 processing time - USCIS estimate vs reality

All, I may not have been patient enough to wait for another few weeks. Does the processing time that USCIS posts apply to most people? My case is Category: EB3 ROW Priority Date: April 2009 I-485 filed: 13 September, 2013 Biometrics: 24 October, 2013 Filed at Texas Service Center. Texas Service Center's I-485 processing is 4 months as of 31 Oct, 2013. I was expecting the approval by now, but the GC tracker seems to indicate many people are waiting much longer. Are there any realistic ways to estimate when the case is up for approval?
