Called USCIS on Friday

On Friday my husband and I called USCIS about the status of our case and we were able to get through to talk to someone. We submitted our I-485 and I-765 on November 1, 2024. Our biometrics appointment for both was on December 6, and the work permit was approved on the same day. On the same day our I-485 went into “Case is being actively reviewed by USCIS” status. I asked if that was normal or if they needed anything from us and she said it was normal and not to worry. Our case is still at NBC and it will be forwarded to the field office once it’s ready for an interview and decision. Has this happened to anyone else? What was your timeline?
