The key word is “approved” . After VAWA is approved you can remarry with no negative consequences to your VAWA status. You get your green card through VAWA, it means you can get naturalized 3 years from the GC date. Your new marriage has nothing to do with it.

Hello everyone, I have a question regarding San Francisco office California. I had my interview based on approved Vawa on 9/30/19 and I was given rfe for medical exam. I submitted it and It was received in their office on 10/11/19. Please does anyone have an idea how long they take to make a decision?Thanks

Generally after sending in RFE response right after interview you should be approved "anytime soon" yes anytime soon because with USCIS you just never know! It's only the adjudicating officer that can say precisely when he's going to approve you! But from the trend I've seen here in your particular kind of situation, it doesn't take long..you can be approved in a matter of days from now..or tomorrow..💁 the most important thing is that you've sent in the RFE which has thankfully been received! Relax and wait for your good news!😊👍

Hi @Aburi2018

Mat I ask when did you get your Vawa approved? Or share your timeline and how was the interview??? I would have my interview in SFO and I got my Vawa approved back in May 2019... just wondering how long might take...

thanks!!!

Just reading this thread... I have an I-485 pending from my marriage before I-360... never heard about I-834w, so I should file it? Not sure what’s the purpose of it, sorry I am lost...

Yes everyone who has a. VAWA case has to file l864W along with form l485.

1-The person can remarry and apply for naturalization within 3 years of getting the green card if the spouse(abuser) is a U.S Citizen.

 

2-IRS gives a better deduction for those filing the taxes jointly.

Same here..it's i864w because we're self petitioners..as opposed to the initial i130 and i485 filed for us by our spouse where we had to send in the i864 affidavit of support! The former is to show we are exempt from this burden! Still not sure if we are required to get the i864w for those of us who already have a pending i485 with i864 submitted already. I have to ask my attorney if we have that in place already, if not will ask that they get it ready ASAP!💁

Yes it’s mandatory to have the l864W submitted . In case your attorney didn’t submit to USCIS then fill out the form and give to the officer .If your attorney didn’t submit and the immigration officer doesn’t  ask tell the IO you have the l864W, because sometimes the IO just realizes after the interview  the l864W is missing and then the case  decision will take longer because of this .

my attorney said I864W is not necessary but I submitted it with my RFE 😉

It’s still mandatory to submit form I864W.. Uscis didn’t extinguish this form yet.The  USCIS new laws/rules  will extinguish form l864W and the  questions in the form l864W will be added to the new l485,but so far USCIS didn’t change form l485

Hello guys,

I share my story, I was married with USC for almost 5 moths, he has like mental problem, I didn’t know until I live in the house. He never hit me but for me he is over controlling me. Before we married he said never stop my religious activity but after married, he changed. He say I can go wherever I want while he is not home. They like to watch adultery movie while I don’t be as long as I sit with them it’s enough, they like to hiking every weekend at the same spot but I don’t because it’s boring. While they often off the track too which is I don’t like because it’s danger. That’s why, weekend always become the stressed days ever for me since married.
The things that I don’t like because he always say that this is our time together as a married couple, we need to spend time together. I feel something isn’t right and I feel trap. I gave up.

That’s why, I run away from the house and after I had some suggestions from USCIS officer and the police officer. I move to a friend’s house in another city.

Until now, my husband tried to call me and leave some voicemails also my father-in-law to ask me comeback to the house again, and the things that made me surprised, they said they will pay my credit card bill (since they know I’m not working since I move to their house and I don’t have money) and they said wants to continue my i130, as long as I comeback home.

But, for me it’s enough, since the 1st and the 2nd month my father-in-law always pays my credit card bill, stop in the 3rd and 4th month but remember again in the 5th month after I left them.

Also, the weekend time become a nightmare I’m afraid, they will ask me to go hiking to unknown place and do something bad to me.

 

What should I do know guys?

Since I move to another city and call some legal aid services and they didn’t know vawa and they said it stop already, they suggested me to make restraining order and go to the court. I don’t want to see my husband and my father-in-law (he is a lawyer too) for now.

 

Any suggestions will help me sooo much. Thank you guys. I’m sorry if too much. God bless you all!

Today I had my AOS interview and would like to share my experience with everyone here. I was nervous and calm in the same time cause I knew God will be with me and guide me through. My attorney could not accompany me as she had something else scheduled. A very polite lady called my name 15 min after the appointment time, leaded me to her office and sweared me in. Took a picture and my indexes fingerprints. 

Asked me about:

*my Id/passport

*general questions out of I485

* why did I overstayed

* about my past/current work

* DOB(s), important dates of when I got married, divorced and so on.

* didn’t mention anything about my VAWA or marriage whatsoever.

asked about my form 864W, which I didn’t have and didn’t know that I should and she said I will get a RFE about it. Therefore a decision about my case has not yet been made.

The whole interview took 25 min exactly but for me it felt like an entire hour. 

Right now I am still trying to come to myself down, and I think all went well, otherwise they wouldn’t ask for the form. 😋☺️ Happy I am over with it, even though still have to wait. 

Anyone knows, can I submit this form in person to drop it off to the office, or should I wait for the RFE and have my attorney submit it?

Thanks everyone for all the help and guidance. 🤗

 

 

 

Your Attorney should have included the form 864w in your file, unless she didn't know much about vawa case.

Also you could have asked people here 1 week before your interview what do you need to get ready.
