VAWA - AOS- Notice of Intent to Deny. Success!

[ELOE 14]

Hi Everyone, I am posting a summary of my journey, specifically of why I received "Notice of Intent to Deny"  Even tho I was a VAWA applicant. 

1- My entry status: F1 Visa, Married to us citizen, it was his idea to bring me here first as an international student and switch the status. 

2- During the 2 years of marriage I was abused by my EX and he was threatening me to cancel the green card application all the time. 

3- My initial I-485 based on marriage was denied because I was accused of "Willful Misrepresentation" as I didn't attend the school, My Ex didn't let me go to school. 

4- I left my Ex and filed a divorce and learned about VAWA. I had strong evidence including police reports.

5- I received RFE because of the same reason ( Misrepresentation)  my lawyer sent more evidence and explained the circumstances of why I didn't attend school.

6- Within 1.5 years my VAWA was approved. Got my EAD and my lawyer filled I-485.

7- Withing 1 year I received a notice for an interview.  I attended the interview with my attorney, they couldn't find the jurisdiction letter in order to make a decision, the officer said they will try to find it. 

8- My lawyer filled FOIA. 

9- After 9 Months, we received a favorable FOIA report and my lawyer submitted it to the officer. 

10- After 6 month, Jan 2019 I received "NOID" because of the same reason "Fraud-  Willful Misrepresentation"  at this point, I was certain that the application will get denied and they will ask me to refile again with a waiver. 

11-  Feb 28, My attorney responded the letter and explained the circumstances again, we submitted evidence that I had good intention to attend school but it wasn't up to me, my ex was controlling everything. We also submitted evidence that I attended a different school and other evidence to show I am in the process of attending grad school,  I tried to submit everything that could possibly prove that I had good intention to attend school here int he U.S. 

12- March 23, My I-485  was approved. 

13- March 29, My Green Card arrived in the mail!!

Hi,

I have a similar case, i360 and i485. Neither I360 is approved nor I got an invitation for an i360 interview. 2 days ago, I received an email for i485. But it doesn’t say approved or denied. In the email, it says Your case status: Decision. I assume Denial or Notice of Intent To Deny is coming. When your i485 was approved, did the email say that it was approved?

Thanks and congrats

A.

if you track your case online it will say "Approval notice" or "Denial notice" if it was intended to deny, it will say " We mailed a notice explaining the action will be taken regarding your case, etc."  try to check later, online.
