Don’t worry.. I have heard cases were the RFE were for proof of the abuser’s legal status(citizen or LPR). With all that evidence you shouldn’t have much issue. You will get approve!! Best of luck. 

if abuser is LPR, does it have any influence on case? Can it cause delay?

There are no differences as long as the adjudication of VAWA I-360. The I-360 filing date(receipt date) or your previous I-130 priority date if any is your priority date. You can only file I-485 or start visa processing once the priority date is current (there is a visa for you).

Are you sure it is certified letter, not priority letter from USCIS?

Many received certified letters with denied notice but not always. Why not check your online status?

You should have a receipt number, such as VSC17???????? that you can check yourself (if the status has been updated):

Does anyone know how long does it take from the time you file VAWA based AOS until the interview date at the field office?

It may depend on the field office processing timeline. However, people in this forum reported from 3 - 9 months from transferring to NBC to interview. As I understand NBC will process background check, which may vary from case to case.

It currently takes about 13-15 months for I-360 to be adjudicated. If you receive an RFE, add a few months to that. After approval, your I-485 is sent to the NBC, which takes 30-60 days. They then send it to your local field office. Processing times vary and can be anywhere up to 9/10 months (you can look up your field office). So everything can take over two years if there are RFE’s and you live by a busy field

office.
