Hi - I am on my H1-B visa and EY sent my I-485 case to USCIS 11/30/2021, I just had my biometric appointment today (1/24/2022). How long will it take me to get my green card ? I think my field office/service center is DC. I see 12 - 43 months for employment based adjustment application and the receipt date seem to be in July 2018. Would it really take that long ? Anyone had experience with the Washington DC center ? It just seems so discouraging waiting for so long

Similar role, both are good teams, etc. Do I politely decline and see my GC process through or accept and get more money? Feel like current employer will drag their feet as long as they can for retention purposes.
