Could someone share a list of items I need to bring for a vawa based 485 interview? Could you share a list of questions officer will ask? Thanks much.

Tuck from what I learned from this forum is that they only asked you the yes/no question on the I-485. But some officers do also ask about your divorce. However, by law they are not supposed to ask you anything about the abuse. But just be prepared for it, go over your evidence you sent when u filed your I-360 and have them with you at your interview.......

Don't be scared take a deep breath. Everything will be ok. It might something small or something like good moral character and Abuse. So if it is about abuse go over your statement and give more details but keep in mind don't contradict your self from previous statements.

Im filing for an appeal. Basically i showed that i was battered. i lived with my spouse. video of us together, pictures of us together with friends. letters from family that shes been at family events. documentation that i have been a batter spouse. i have an extreme cruelty divorce. i gave them tax filings, our lease, showed she lived there. why i love my wife and our courtship they believe everything

They denied me based on that i did not show. "mutual property, insurance, bank accounts"

That is just........ impossible to fathom..We are filing an appeal.. i may even get a letter from my ex-wife stating that we were married in faith... but you know... they believe we loved eachother.. but its just not a good marriage in Faith? What the.. this has to be appeal i was denied unjustly.

Hey, I was denied last year for something similar.........don't appeal, re-file ur case.....appealing the case might just take longer....also be more specific in your statements.....and give reasons why you don't have a bank accounts....etc.

Hey Adele ,any news about your apportionment letter? I am still waiting ...

hey Anxious,

I haven't heard anything from them yet regarding the interview notice. Still waiting but i would take EVERYTHING you attorney tell you with a grain of salt.... don't believe that they know everything sometimes u do your own research and in this case, i strongly belive they are WRONG, everyone I know including my lawyer said the interview will be scheduled in a FEW WEEKS not 6months! Even if u call USCIS they'll confirm that unless there is something EXTRA SPECIAL about your case :blush:

Otherwise you are on the same track as Yullisa, Ladyg and many more, don't panic :bonk:
