Dear Sandranj 

 

Thank you so much help me answer my questions 

 

1: I have “notice of dismissed “ from court on dec-2016.

Do you think so this is “CERTIFIED COURT DEPOSITION “?

 

”expungement of a criminal record “ need attorney help me . I think so I don’t know how to do it .i was talk to attorney before , they said need charge  $900 will be help me expungement  and sealing this case . this price is too high or is normal ?

 

My vawa attorney alway said it is doesn’t matter, he said because I ha e “notice of dismissed “, he is not very professional,  last time mar-2018 he have submit my I-485 to Uscis , Uscis return all document . He was submit 2nd time Uscis accept it .i am not very true his suggest  for mysel criminal history record .

 

Thank you so much 

Certified Court deposition is not the same thing of a dismissal notice. The dismissal notice states that the case was dismissed, that is it,but the Court deposition creates a written transcript of your testimony,and you need to get a CERTIFIED DEPOSITION.People think the dismissal is what matters but for immigration what matters besides the sentence is what the parts said in Court.

 

 

I think It’s a fair attorney fee $900

Hello,
I am new to this forum, I do not know much about Vawa, but I have read and apparently there are many collaborators that may be able to help me with this situation that worries me:
After archiving my complete package (I-360, I-485, I-765), I recently noticed that my attorney apparently mistakenly sent Form I-765 under category C31 instead of category C09, so that I will not get my work permit before my I-360 is approved. Before asking my lawyer to explain how she could correct this error, I would like to know how it might be possible to make such a correction, either by sending a new Form I-765 under the category C09 or in some other way possible.
Thank you all for helping me …

Once Vawa is approved your attorney has two options,a) ask the Uscis counsel to join the notion to terminate proceedings and then adjust status with USCIS, b) file a motion to reopen and adjust status with the Court.  Most attorneys prefer option “a”.

Thank you so much for your reply. Do I need my I 94 and my passport with my original visa when I file for motion to terminate proceedings? 

 

We had a fire at my uncles house back in 2010 and my passport that had my visa and I 94 was burned. I have a valid passport now but no I 94. I just want to know so that I can start gathering everything I need so when the time comes, I will be prepared. Thank you again for your response

@Angelica123

You can ask your attorney to submit I-765 category C9 and to also send a letter to withdraw the previous I-765 C31. 

You have to pay the filing fees unless you qualify for a fee waiver, then I suggest you send the fee waiver along with the I-765 C9.

HI Sandra

 

My attorney filed VAWA petition for me including; I-360, I-485 and I-765 few days back. As she has filed I-765 under C-31 category, when should I expect to receive EAD card ? My attorney said, I will receive it in 3-4 months after biometrics appointment. In this thread I found, EAD card only get issued if I-360 will be approved in C-31 category. Is this true ? Thanks in advance !!!

@Angelica123 The same happened to me so my attorney resend a new one two weeks ago with category c09 and explaining to USCIS that she “mistakenly” filed under c31. Even though c31 is a valid category, she just wanted to explain that I wish to receive my EAD now and not after the I-360 has been approved. She also included the fee waiver and ask them to disregard the form send with c31 category.

 

However I still have not received a receipt notice from uscis yet.

@shayona by choosing cat. C31, your I-765 will only be approved after your I-360 has been approved which can take up to 24 months. If you needed to receive your work permit in 3-4 months, your attorney should have filed cat. C09

The 2nd EAD is issued C31 along my case is approved. I have my lawyer for filing.

Thanks Hanna Bui, Did you file I-360 ? You said your lawyer has filed I-131. Is it because of filing I-131, you have received EAD card ? 

 

Thanks JonShai for replying my question.

Yeap, My lawyer filed I-360 with I-485, I-765, I-131 for me. My 1st EAD is combo card (EAD and Patrole Entry) on C09 unless my Lawyer chose C31 on I-360.

Still I am confused a little bit. Did your lawyer choose C-31 or C-09 category while filing VAWA ?

My lawyer filed C-09 category while filling my Vawa.

But everybody in this forum say we have to file C-09 for getting earlier than C31. Being careful is the best for our case.

Thanks for quick reply  I think because of choosing C-09 category you might have received EAD super quick. 

Hope someone in this thread share personal experience if she might have filed VAWA under C-31.
