Hi everyone , thanks for good wishes,

Well I go into Detroit yesterday and stayed overnight. I went to the Courthouse today at 11.00am and the hearing was over in literally five minutes. I had the same judge as last time who was sweet and human. she allowed a continuance until the end of November in order to give me more time to sort out the NOID. This will also hopefully give me time to appeal if the NOID is denied. This in itself was a relief but of course I still have to deal with the Notice of Intent to Deny which is due in just under two weeks.

The judge was great, she wished me luck and asked if I was ok. I said this was very stressful and she nodded in agreement. Just a shame she can't adjudicate my petition. I felt like a person not just a case. It's always so nice to actually see someone in person.

.....well on with the NOID. If it is denied (which the attorney who went with me stated "It's virtually unheard of that a NOID is overturned) I have another lawyer who is putting my case together. They are kind of working together pro bono I have no reservations in appealing if I can and even going to court to testify and tell my story with witnesses if I have to. I want to be heard.

Thanks again

Love Shona

Thats good news Shona

What was the hearing for today, I thought you were going to get your decision on the NOID. Obviously I got that one wrong, looking at your timeline I guess it was a further removal hearing that you went to today.

Where do you go to hear about the NOID.

How long might it be before you get your EAD you must be going out of your mind!!!

Hi there,

Yes the NOID and removal hearings are two separate things. The removal hearing came about because my ex didn't go the AOS interview. Because of this I have had to ask the IJ more time to get my VAWA petition adjudicated- and now have a NOID to deal with on top. If my I360 had been approved then so would my EAD have been. It's mutally exclusive deal. I don't have a hearing for the NOID- I just have to reply to the qustions they have asked me and submit even more evidence to support them. this is dealt with through Vermont.
