Thanks for your fast response! it's so confusing and I just don't know why would they issue c14 or if the attorney messed up.I hope it doesn't affect my AOS

Don't worry too much..with an approved VAWA we are technically under deffered action! When you receive the approval letter the deffered action letter usually accompanies it! Ask your attorney though he probably will be able to explain what he did or didn't do! When i got my approval letter, the deffered action letter came with it!

Thanks Dear, and the attorney hates me and is not responsive anymore because I fired him. He wasn't good with VAWA stuff so I'm assuming he messed up and filed c14 by mistake. I'm scared he filed another kind of application such as U Visa. But I have received Prima Facies before and IDK if U visas applicants also receive Prima Facies... UGH

At least I got work permit

Hi guys 

I had an interview in the morning. 

My attorney was being late so IO gave me 10minutes and she still was not there so we just started. 

My attorney came later and IO let her in. 

I knew she was going to be late so it was not that surprising to me sadly. 

Interview was smooth. 

IO lady started checking all the infos about me on the filed papers. 

She asked me for medical and original copy of birth certificate. 

Other than that, she did not ask any of other documents that I prepared even though I only took the ones that were on the letter. 

 

She went through all the infos including my parents name and all the "have you been-" questions. 

She did not ask me about abuser's name, DOB or date of marriage. Nothing about the abuser or the incident. 

 

While she was checking infos with red pen, if there are new infos like my new address or work place, social number which I did not have when I filed i-485 were marked, numbered and she updated on the system. 

 

Before disclosure

there was a question asking have you worked illegally? 

I said no and 

My attorney jumped in and corrected my answer saying "She worked as a waitress before she got social. It was only for tipping." 

 

So IO changed the answer and I put my initial beside the box. Gosh I really did not see that coming. 

 

Guys, be sure your attorney comes to interview on time and not to make unexpected unnecessary statement in the interview. 

 

Anyways! 

Interview took about 30mins and it would have been better without my attorney lol 

 

I am not sure if the statement my attorney made will affect the decision but hopefully not. 😢

I will be waiting for any response. Nothing has been updated yet. 

 

I am in Texas, filed in september 2017. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think you have to be upfront honest if you ever worked illegally or without work authorization especially when the visa officer asks in specific ... maybe that’s why the lawyer butted in and clarified it so that your records state that you were honest under oath ... just saying ... 

congrats dear .... GC is approved ... for sure

Good morning All, 

 

I Received my EAD from my VAWA application, however is category c14.. I think the attorney who filed this messed up (he had no idea about VAWA) 

My question is: anybody has had catgegory c14?

 

@sandranj do you know if EAD c14 will impact my AOS application? My original i-485 application was placed on hold when I filed VAWA but I'm just confused as why they issued c14 EAD. 

 

*c14: Deferred Action Granted

 

I apreaciate all your thoughts and comments. 

Category C14 won’t impact your case non at all. All it means is that you were granted “deferred action” because your case is approved. Normally they would send C31 EAD along with a I-767 with deferred action but consider C14 as EAD with deferred action. So technically it’s a better EAD as in you don’t have to travel with the physical deferred action receipt. I got it as well back then but I had also received C31 with a physical deferred action receipt too. Congratulations 🎈🎉🎊🍾. Oh and it’s rare to receive it. Your the 2nd person including me I’ve seen.
