VAWA

[anxiousVA 1]

Oh thank you tuna.....now I now why my work permit is taking so long.....I did my biometrics 4 weeks ago and I haven't heard anything from them. I'm so frustrated because I got laid off my job because they need it.

Yes, You should call info pass. I filed for I-360, I -485 and EAD. After exactly 90 days of waiting I received my EAD. For some unknown reason I already have my fingerprints taken for I-485 but it is still pending as well as I-360.

Hi all, Congratulations Sonia and Honey. i wish you luck Pascal.

Tuna hang in there, it can't be too long now. I pray you get the acceptance letter soon.

Its heart breaking when you think of what we are all going through...it's just depressing. But we have to encourage one another to stay strong and pray for the best.

It will be 10 years in January since I saw my family last, 10 years of immigration stress. My father passed away, I couldn't even go home for the burial...I have wanted to give up on many occassions and pack my bag and go home, but I can't do that because I have a child with my ex, who has a serious medical condition. My life since I left my ex has been very trying to say the least. 911 calls, countless emergency room visits, Neonatal intensive care, neurologists etc. Its been hell. I have no help, no money, nothing. But I put my hope in God alone. He must have a plan for me, He must, if not why do I have to live like this. I am just existing.

Be strong you guys and never loose faith. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

i have the best wishes for you. let pray together for a speedy approval. there is no question it is really hard to go through all this. I hope lord will give us a justice.

Hello everyone,

I read all the postings so far. Thank you everyone for sharing your information on this portal. It is very helpful. May God bless us and give us the strength to recover from our ordeals.

I filed for VAWA petition and AOS (I-360, I -485, I-765) on Feb 14th, 2011

Receipt notice date - Feb 17th, 2011

Prima Facie determination - Feb 18th, 2011

I know this is still early to expect anything back from USCIS, but I just wanted to provide my information here to see if anyone else has filed their petition around the same time? Thank you.

I also want to know about how many pages should be our personal statement.I read here that most people wrote 15.I DON'T really know.I included all the details of my abuse but it wasn't up to 15 pages and i'm not even sure that my attorney read them.answer me please!

Hello N400-2011,

After experiencing the traumatic phase, I subconsciously still feel like a victim. And now the next phase is to wait and see what happens with my VAWA. I hope it gets approved. But I agree with you, I should go ahead and change my name...will do that. Thank you.

I'm not too sure about filing I-485. Maybe you can get some advice from your lawyer. Regarding the personal statement, my statement was around 10 pages with all the details of the abuse. I'm not sure if the number of pages is critical. It is more about the content. If you have explicitly described everything than I think you should be in a good shape. How long is your statement? Good luck!

Thank you, Vetra for your quick response. Seems like you submitted all the relevant documents and had a very strong case. It's been 1.5 months that I've submitted my petition. Let's see. I hope it gets approved.
