VAWA I-360

[Macbook 2]

Dear friends,

My I-130 was approved 03/26/2008, and later my problems started (I don't wan to bather you guys with that). Then I applied for VAWA (I-360), Application for Adjustment of Status (I-485) and Employment (I-765) in April 21, 2011. EAD approved on 05/26/2011, Request for evidence for VAWA received on 05/31/2011 Biometrics taken on 06/24/2011. I collected all info and on 09/06/2011 sent responds. On 09/12/2011 I got Prima Facie. Now I have couple questions that are very important for me. When I can get divorced? (I am VERY scared to do so) and how long will take Vermont Service Center to send me hopefully approval?

Also on 04/29/2011 ICE processed me and now I have to report to BI (every other week to the BI office, one day a month via phone and one day a month they come to my house), I have very big health problems and also I'm under the care of Psychiatrist and Psychologist because of trauma. ICE never filed with the court (My attorney says that they what for final word on I-485 and I-360.) How can I lower reporting times? Is it possible?

Thank you Very much for any responds!

This is the wrong forum for your questions. You're not adjusting status from a family based visa. Most VAWA questions go to the "Effects of Major Family Changes" forum. This forum is mostly people adjusting from K visas. A moderator will probably come along and move your thread.

Ok, you should probably hold off on the divorce until a decision is made on your I-360. A VAWA self-petitioner can be divorced, as long as the divorce was no more than two years prior to filing the petition, and that the primary cause of the divorce was the claimed abuse. You'll complicate your situation if you divorce now, especially if you live in a "no fault" divorce state.

I have no idea how to answer your second question.
