I filed for I-765 renewal in January 2018 and haven’t heard back yet. Looks like it’s taking more like 4/5 months right now. 

I think so. My lawyer told me that uscis always taking 2.5-5 months to issue the I765 right now.

Thanks @SssMay. 

Thanks @Rookieden for your timeline post. Could you post your experience of your interview.

1. What documents and questions did they ask if you disclose would help rest of us in getting prepared what to expect.

2. Did you accompany your attorney too? 

3. My case was transferred to NBC and received only 1 transfer notice on Jan 31st and no updates since then. Did they send you separate transfer notice after sending to Newark?

Can somebody help me. Do I have to do something or just wait? 

 

Sept 2016 - filed VAWA 

NOV 2016 i485 interview based on marriage. The IO held my i485 in abbeyance to my just filed i360 back then 

Dec 2016 - transferred my i485in a different office and they have the jurisdiction to that ( did not say where) 

 

Feb 2018 - VAWA approved. 

 

should I make an info pass or how can I update them re my i485? just wondering because I see people here that when their VAWA was approved, their i485 gets an update too after few weeks or so. Mine was approved in Feb 1, im just wondering if it normal that its been 2 mos that I got my vawa approval  and I havent heard anything re my i485 that was on hold since dec 2016..

Is this the case status for i-485?

If so it's possible they will issue the card without an interview it's rare but happens sometimes.

Hello everyone. I talked to my friend's friend who has been working in uscis. But I found his opinions are not completely correct or even misunderstood to VAWA application. I am applied vawa based on the mental abuse. Yes, I am a male. It is hard to have the physical abuse too me. I have the psychiatrist's report. I am under adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and long-term depressed mood. Every day I’ve been tormented.  I do psychotherapy every week. This is a difficult time in my life. But this officer's words make me confused. I just post what he said. And I hope you guys can give your opinion.

 

"I have read your scenario as instructed by your cousin. I have to conclusively say that you may not really eligible for adjustment of status on the basis of years I have been working at USCIS and US Navy for legal assistant. Sparse out the whole pieces into small sections, you said your I-765 is pending for 90 days without getting the final approval, which is actually the USCIS correction procedure because you did file the C09 application within one year since the first filing on April 2017 and did the same application within the same year while your employment authorization was still valid at the point. Additionally, Just because your marriage to a US citizen or national does not guarantee you the right for adjustment of status if your spouse does not wish to include you into the immigration package, although your US citizen spouse indeed petitioned for you in the past and withdrew the application shortly after the filing however before the case is interviewed by adjudicated USCIS officers.
Moreover, the I-360 application is based on the abusive spouse and victim spouse and you must do the legal research with all federal-level case law at law library to see how to properly define “abusive” under the federal level. Besides, you are obligated to get the police report if your spouse had ever once physically battered or assaulted you in the past, which is the only criterion, as I assume professionally, to the ground for abusive spousal victim. As our offices past filings, the only time I-360 could be granted is based on the fact that the couples have been married for 2 years after the I-485 is approved, however the US citizen does not help out with the I-751 application to remove the condition on the green card of the beneficiary, along with the fact that the US citizen filed divorce claim against the alien before 2 years was due. On this occasion, the beneficiary is eligible for I-360 because he/she already got the conditional green card, being checked for credibility of the DHS (I-130) and the the US spouse filing the divorce filing to the state court initially at the first place. Therefore, your situation is much less strong for this filing. Moreover, the fact that your spouse dismissal of your I-485 result in your invalidity of remaining is not considered as “abusive”. The USCIS receiving of your case and charging your fee does not mean it is going to give you any positive results as matter of fact.
What I am suggesting is you might consider divorce your spouse and find someone else who is able to help you through marriage for immigration purposes, or see if you are eligible for L1, refugee or asylum application just like other immigrants do as they firstly arrived at the United States. All in all, seek help from immigration attorney in your state rather than doing the application yourself. As I see, the applications you did are either incomplete or erroneous. ''
