VAWA Part 2

[lorphelpme 9]

Hi Sandranj my friend did call the vawa hotline again to find out about the expedite no one has called back. Also she got her another court date with the immigration judge for July 2013. This is the first time she has gotten a date so far apart usually it's every six months this time it's 10 months. Does that say anything.

Also am gonna go to my congress person Friday because I have Been waiting 13 months for approval my 3rd prima facie which was valid for 2/3 months expires second week of October any thoughts. Thanks

When she ask for the expedite her court case was for next week but her lawyer sent a letter to the judge last week cause she didn't get a decision on her case so he got the judge to postporn the date and they gave her July 2013. Wat do u think.

what is deny? can someone explain for me thank you.

If you got a letter saying deny that means you were not approved. Did you get a letter or did your status change on uscis website saying deny?

[Sandra G. 5,043]

Sara khan "deny" it means "refuse to grant", if you got a letter saying your case was denied it means your case wasn't approved by Immigration. Did you get a denial letter?

[Sandra G. 5,043]

lorphelpme if Vawa Unit call your friend then she must say that her Court date will be next year, and of course USCIS won't expedite her case, once there is no "urgency" to expedite anymore.

I would really like to know more about this letter sent to Vermont... Sandra is this even possible???? I believe what ur Lawyer have told u, Vawa are very confidential and `they will not take anything sent to them from the abuser ... Am i right Sandra??/

My EAC was sent to his address right after I moved out from there and thats when he withdrew the applications based on marriage. I did my changed of address and the USCIS sent a letter for me saying that the I 485 was denied and my husband withdrew the application. There was another letter in my mail for him saying that his request was sent to the Vermont Center. When I gave the letter to my lawyer she said to not to worry because they wont release any information about my case. That's why I was worried because after the court issued an injunction against him, he got me one for revenge and he might try to contact Vermont Center and use that against me. He hates me so much that he could do whatever. I went through a nightmare as most of you here and not having a RFE at least drives me crazy...

If they never call her back would they think that her court date is still the same and still proceed to expedite or not.cause am assuming they got the request and will make a decision.

It's been a little over 2 weeks since they got te request. My thing is from wat I have been told it takes 5-10 days so it looks like vsc is not even doing their jobs period because no letter was mailed out nor contact was made. I guess the letter is just lying somewhere who knows u just never know with them.

A bit confused If anyone in same boat definitely appreciate your help.

My VAWA was approved January 2012

My I485 was attached to my previous I130 (applied August 2010).

Today I got a letter saying my I130 was approved which should be great except on the letter it says the following:

"We have sent the original visa petition to the NVC (national visa center)" Im inside the US, did USCIS mess up on transferring or is NVC handling domestic cases as well??

Vawa you need to send psychological evaluation,If you are not doing therapy I recommend you start NOW and after a few sessions ask the psychologist to give you a psychological report and then submit with your case.USCIS requires proof of the mental abuse, just your own affidavit is not enough. There are several places you can find some free help with psychologist.

-You need police clearance from your home country and USA(all places that you lived more than 6months in the last 3 years)

-copy of the US Citizen passport of naturalization papers.If you can't find at all you can give to USCIS her SSN and copy of her driver license, but remember the burden of proof is yours.

-copy of utilities bills(cable,water,internet,phone) bank statement(joint bank account) joint tax return.Health insurance plan, car insurance in name of both etc...

notarized affidavit from family and friends stating your marriage was genuine.

To prove mental/psychological abuse you have to show you were subjected to intimidation,jealousy,isolation,threats etc..

I don't know about your situation, but many people get divorce because they didn't feel happy,fell out of of love, realized made mistake etc and these reasons are not grounds to file Vawa tho. You need to have proof that you were subjected to mental abuse, and not just had a few fights here and there because the couple didn't get along.

I don't have your experience (not many VAWA like you) but how good is psyc eval without other evidences? PSYC is all talk and no proof. How good is affidavit of family if chance of lying? Maybe affidavit better from independent witnesses?

VAWA is always strictest of confidential peanutbutter, but your post is confusing. What injunction? What does "he got me one for revenge" mean? How did you get a letter for him if you changed address? Your post makes no sense.

Maybe no RFE means they have enough from you already. Good luck!

I just got RFE letter. They are asking for following: Certificate of Marriage (Certified from county clerk). My spouses proof of US citizenship, and proof of Bona Fide marriage, this is second time that they are asking for it.

I don't know where to get my wife's Birth Certificate? Also all pictures she has, all bills what where in our names she has. I don't know what to do. Last year I send about ten affidavits and all proof that I could find but they are asking for more?

If your wife is US born citizen you can go to the county clerks office were she was born. As a husband your allowed to get a copy of these documents.

It does sound like they are asking for an awful lot of stuff. Some things you don't have like those pictures, other evidence...that is your problem for not being more aware of documentation during your time together.

Ten affidavits? How good are the affidavits for credibility, professional, verifiable, and consistent?
