Yes I can work I'm just scared I won't get the new one before September 😑

September is 6 months away. You'll get it before then. I applied 6 months before for renewal because of delayed processing. Got the card within 2 months which was great but means one more application before green card.

I guess I have to wait and see. I hate to say this but I feel like my lawyer doesn’t care. All he need is to scan the letter and email First it took him 4 months to file my vawa from the day I signed the papers. God will see me through. Thank you.

As much as I can understand your plight as per wanting your stuffs done and moving, I believe you should exercise patience and tolerate your Lawyer. Vawa can be complex beyond anyone's imagination. Its very unprofessional of him not to carry you along however, VAWA is a race that is not won by the fastest neither is it for the slow, it takes the Grace of God to excel and get a good outcome off of it. Sometimes lawyers make amendment to cases based on bad outcome from a prior filled cases, it's better to be safe than sorry and also better late and expect a positive outcome than rush through it all to no avail.

Hello everyone. I just filed my VAWA on Jan. 9th, 2018. And I got the RFE on Feb. 6th, 2018. The RFE is only about good moral character. And I send it to USCIS on Mar. 12th. After that, I received Prima Facie on Mar. 22th. I heard some people said that it is a good thing if the RFE only about the good moral character. I am curious whether this is true.  

 

Happy Easter to you all family, i don't really know much but i guess it's a good thing because it's easy to get plus if there was any other thing they need they will ask you. Good luck. How long did it take for you to get a receipt notice after you file? I filed on the 03/10/2018 and still no receipt notice.

Hello all. Thanks all for all your help and time posting. The replies were very useful and helped me to be patient and hopeful. 

I got the VAWA approval and waiting for I-485. I sent the VAWA, I-485 and I-765. Providing the timeline hoping it might be useful for others.

 

I-360 - Received the receipt on  Oct 25th 2016 and got a RFE on Nov 2016 for background check and sent. No updates and after long wait got approved on Jan 2018.

I-765 - Sent on Nov 29th 2016 and got approved on Dec 6th 2017.

I-485- Sent on Nov 29th 2016 and notice date for transfer to NBC sent on Jan 29th 2018. 

Can anyone help me in estimating how long more it will take to receive the interview and Jacksonville would be my local office?

Hello all.

 

I filed for AOS through marriage back in Dec 2016 and got work permit in April 2017. 

My wife and I got separated in early August 2017 and we got the interview notice for AOS on Aug 22nd. I did not attend the interview and I am not sure if she did.

I filed for divorce and got finalized in November 2017. I started the VAWA application with my lawyer back in October 2017.

 

My lawyer is finally ready to file it now. My work permit has expired and I am out of job now. My USC ex-wife had been extorting money from me during the marriage and left me in a very huge debt and the lawyers weren't cheap either. I was planning on applying for I485 and I765 after I get a Prima Facie. I will be filing these myself since my lawyer is asking for $2500 for it in addition to the $3000 I paid for the VAWA and $2000 I paid for the divorce. I was planning on applying for fee waiver. Does anyone have any experience filing for fee waiver? Can you guide with the documentation required for the fee waiver?

 

Thanks!

Hello guys, please I need your help. I had a pending i485 that was filed by my husband by my soon to be ex- husband who has now deserted me. I have filed my VAWA application based on the pending i485 but just received a notice that the pending i485 has been denied. I haven’t received the notice but I suspect he probably withdrew his sponsorship. I have a pending VAWA that has been received and I have even received a prima facie approval. 

Should I appeal the denied i485 or should I just file a new one with the Vermont office. He is a USC. Thanks for your help.

Hi guys, I am sending my I485 and I765 . I filled out form I912 fee waiver for hardship since I am not working and I am living with my mother. I don’t have anything to proof that. What should I do?

I don’t think you need to send in any proof.
