There are many charities with pro bono lawyers but they are all making appointments in a months time and I don't have a lot of time for my particular case.

In that case hire a lawyer ASAP, because I don't think you should be doing this yourself. I'm telling you now if the lawyer is more than $5,000 it's too much, $2,000 to 5,000 is normal for a good lawyer.

Did you receive your denial letter from USCIS.

If you did not, did you call the shelter to ask them if they sent you your mail?

I called the shelter and the lady said she forwarded it on 28TH July but I am yet to receive it so I am going to call the post office. The lawyers say they need to see the denial letter. I called USCIS and the agent I talked to today changed my address and put in a request to get my letter mailed to me again. But she did say that they won't extend the time I have to appeal which is usually the time one starts to get a chance of receiving a notice to appear.

ok good, but regardless you are not appealing your case, you are re-filing. If USCIS sends you a notice to appear to court for removal and you present the judge with a NEW I-360 receipt showing that you have a vawa pending, the judge will temporarily hold the deportation order until your vawa is adjudicated. This means that you have from now until the court date to file for vawa and receive a new I-360 receipt from VSC which you can subsequently show the judge at the hearing, if you ever get a Notice to appear. A memorandum in Nov 2011 tells USCIS officers to focus more on referring people to immigration court if they are a threat to “national security, public safety, and the integrity of the immigration system.” Other deportable aliens are less of a priority. So this means that you do have a little time, not much but enough to get a lawyer, put a brand new COMPLETE package together and file a new I-360 as soon as possible.

Don't lose hope and get working, find a lawyer.

tdiva your affidavit should not have 20 pages and not 3 pages either, try to tell your story in 9/13 pages.A well done psychological evaluation should have 9/15 pages. I read so many ####### evaluations lately.Your affidavit should mention courtship(2/3 pages) about the marriage and abuse.When describing the abuse mention at least month and year that the abuse occurred.You have to describe how you felt after each abuse suffered,describe how you were previous the marriage,how you became after the abuse etc..

I feel for you my dear, you work very hard, my brother does that kind of job, fortunately he's a supervisor but I know all of the crew basically works very hard and sometimes your journey starts as early as 2 a.m. This means every penny is very well worked for. Don't waste too much time traveling, or out of work that might lead to loose your job. I was going to suggest if you have time read the first treads of VAWA. I remember a few structures for the personal affidavit there... Then I saw Sandra's reply...she's giving you info, great!!! let's say for example that you explain about a confrontation, explain how it started, what did she do, how you felt during and after what she did in that particular confrontation, and then the same with the next time she got violent... The most important is to explain the details not just, for example: she pushed me, yelled at me, threw a glass at me and walked out the door, explain what, why, how, when

Also Sandra has told you pictures are not everything, if you received any type of mail and or bills to.the same address bring it to your file keep copies of everything that you send, even magazine subscriptions help, usps sends a confirmation letter when you change address did you received one when you moved with your wife? Car insurance under both of your names, life insurance. Bank accounts, if you don't have something explain why you don't, for example if she wanted to have under her name to control the accounts what would she say about adding your name to the accounts, stuff like that... An attorney charged me 1200 for filing my VAWA and at the end it was Sandra who pushed the case through... And many of us did aos in our own of course guided by her. Very important to pay close attention to her advise

Thanks to all of your good wishes and for the congratulations some of you sent for my Aos. Life is beautiful :-) congratulations Czzr
