VAWA RFE

[Royce 0]

thank you very much

I consulted another attorney today who said that in most of her approved VAWA cases there was no green card interviews and moreover; processing time for green card based on approved VAWA petition doesn't depend on residence ( I checked USCIS.gov and for example processing time for I-485 in Cleveland OH is much shorter than LA or SF) and that's an attorney who is specialized in VAWA and U. Is this information reliable? how can I make sure?

 

Thank you
