Hi Kwala,

I am so sorry you have been waiting all this time.. If you have someone special in mind, why don't you ask your lawyer if you can go ahead and marry that person and ask them to petition for you? Just a thought... I don't know what your exact circumstances are, but That is WAY TOO Long to be waiting...

Also, have you ever thought of filing a Writ of Mandamus, where u compel the USCIS to take action and adjucate your case? It can be a little pricey as a lawyer must do this, But I think it's worth it if you get results from it.. I just feel so bad for you.. I mean I have almost been waiting for 4 years, I can't imagine 7... You indeed have much patients and Faith in God... AlhamdulilAllah..

Hello Kwala, thanks for the feedback.

As per your case...7 years is a long time, I doubt if they will deny your case now, they just have to approve it, so you can move on with your life. I wonder if this people in Vermont understand what we immigrants have to go through after an abusive relationship :(. I wish you the best.

Do you have work authorization? I'm just wondering how you survive if you can't work.

tuna - looks like an approval to me... I have noticed consistently that anyone who has had multiple touches in a short time span ended up with an approval. You can take a look at my timeline too so that you can have some idea. I think it is an approval and you should hear from them in the upcoming weeks. Perhaps the time to relax has come. Hang in there and I am hoping and praying for you that it is an approval. Don't stress and just see what happens in the upcoming weeks.

with everyone getting so many touches it seems like they may be trying to play "catch up" on all the applications which is a good thing especially if it is before the holiday season. Hopefully, we will see more approvals and positive news for everyone.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

what prima facie can do for you ? Rent ? Bills ? Emergency medical ? phone? insurance ? Foods ? transports?

Of course will affect adjust status .that why interview is needed for vawa to find out ground of inadmisibily .is not good to use prima facie that called public charge will be on your record rest of life .

Everyone should request work permit to VSC Under (14 c ) write letter with your i-765 tell them you need to work to puy laundry . So prima facie will not give you even milk for the child .some people should be permanent residence to get benifits .

look at tuna time line she request renewal of prima facie but vsc Toush her 131 to find out if she is travel and can afford it and not afford food .

prima facie or any assistance benifits is not good for your case because most vawa people when they write the history letter they should say Dear officer I NEVER get any assistance or public benifits or comited any crime please Grant my petition .

for filing or instruction how to file i-765 under your situation with pending i-360 call customer service .

it aint about how hard you hit .its about how hard you can get hit and how much you can take and keep moving forward even broken

Prima facie is given to alien to survive in this country until I 360 is adjucated. Mr. toush(touch)should read the guidelines for WAVA first. In fact, I 485 is also exempted for fees and waiver is accepted. Getting public support will not effect any immigration adjustment process. ( refer to guidelines)

I need to get an extension so that my son's medicaid will continue( I didn't use his medicaid yet but I am afraid that If something will happen to him then I will need it, I don't have job yet...) plus the school is asking for it too...Is there anybody who could tell me how to apply for the extension of prima facie? What should I say in the application and what documents are needed??? I lost my attorney too so I need to do it all by myself..No money to pay her either...Pls help me as soon as possible....Thanks!!!

that will affect your record if you want bring someone from familly here in future .you will not share with anyone the prima facie .is better for you to respect other to be respected if you speak 2 language i speak 5 man .or Mam . when you gona have the court .do they ask you for good moral character ?

it aint about how hard you hit .its about how hard you can get hit and how much you can take and keep moving forward even broken

Hi Andrea,

I didn't get it yet, but I suggest you send it out a month before it expires..

EXTENSION OF VAWA PRIMA FACIE STATUS DETERMINATION

Re: Name of Applicant, AXXX XX XXXX (Applicant)

Dear USCIS Officer:

I am writing to request an extension of the prima facie V A W A determination in the above referenced matter. The Applicant filed an 1-360 VAWA petition on xx/xx/xxx. A notice of prima facie eligibility was issued on xx/xx/xxxx, valid for 180 days. That status is soon set to expire. To ensure continuity in the Applicant's status, we request an extension of prima facie status.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter. Please contact me if you have any questions.
