I’m going back there next week hopefully..I will tell them that I wanna speak to the supervisor maybe they probably call and confirm my status ..I don’t know why they said they can’t find it on the system ..my question is how come I get the extension letter ?i think they should always sanely sometimes ..cause this is so annoying ..I can’t wait to get my green card she become a citizen ..tired of all these immigration backlash 

Don't worry every day brings us closer to the end..soon the whole thing will be a distant memory. I hope your mind is at rest now that you've gotten several responses..you'll be fine!👌👍

Hello everyone so I will mail today mv renewal request for my EAD and AP which will expire on May 2020. I have read on the USCIS website that C31 filers (VAWA petiotioners) are included on that policy where they will renew the EAD automatically up to 180 days, the proof that you filed for renewal is their receipts copy. Did this apply to anyone of you with your employer, did they accept it? Also, has anyone experienced after that 180 days extensions there's still no Green Card, will they extend the EAD again?

 

Thank you for your response.

@sandranj this was my question.. thank you

Your attorney is damn wrong.If your spouse is a U.S citizen you can file l485, l765 category C9 and you will get the work permit within a few months.I have one case  that USCIS just 3 weeks to issue the work permit.

@sandranj hoping you read this. Is it possible to notarize my AR-11

You will notarize the cover letter that you will submit along with  form AR11.Keep in mind USCIS rarely updates the address ,they are messy.One week after mailing the change of address go to infopass to make sure they changed the address ok.

Hello...

I have some questions about Vawa, I hope someone can clarify for me.

 

1) my prima facie expires on March 19th, 2020. Do They send automatically the extension or I should file something for it to be extended?

 

2) my Work permit Is till May 9,2020, it is under C09 (even though it came after my prima facie, I don’t know why they did it with this category, or it is normal?) When do I need to file for extension? Last time I filed for extension it took almost 10 months to get the card

 

3) I am in Community college in NYC, I filled out Fafsa, and today I got a letter that I received some scholarship from my college and also TAP grant. Is it safe to accept those awards? Can it be dangerous for my vawa case? I heard that USCIS doesn’t like people using governmental financial aid... 

 

If anyone can help me and reassure or warn me, please, I would really appreciate!

guys i have a question. 

I applied for Vawa, i have form i130 and i-485 pending. I have moved out of my spouse's house. 

my question is how would i know if my spouse have withdrawn the form i-130? Is there a way i find out? 

Legally speaking if your husband withdraws the l130 the AOS will be denied,and you will know if they deny the AOS ,but I have two cases the spouses withdrew the l130,but USCIS didn’t deny the AOS because both officers agreed to put on hold the l485 BEFORE the spouses canceled the l130.

 

I know the spouses withdrew the l130 because I received the l130 denial, but if you don’t have an attorney then your husband will receive the l130 denial,not you,and you will receive the l485 denial.

@sandranj @Stillwinning!!!😊 and the rest of knowledgeable people on the forum ,I went to the DMV with my extension letter to renew my drivers license and on getting there the lady told me that my extension letter is not showing on the system ..but I told her that’s what they told me to bring to renew my drivers license and later On she said she has to make a case for me  u far SAVE and she gave me a case number to be tracking till it’s says case closed then I can come back and renew the drivers license ..my drivers license will expire on Monday ...I don’t know what to do ..sometimes this immigration procedure does not always make sense ..immigration issue receipt with extension letter yet DMV is saying is not on the system ..is that not awkward ?? I will be waiting to hear back from people who have gone through this before cause is just so nerve wrecking !!! Thanks 

This is happening because the Automatic extension start the date after your EAD expires not a day or week before, so you have to go after it expires so the extension will be in effect and it will be show on the system.

Why I130 priority date is mentioned in I360 approval notice?

Because USCIS mentions in ALL approvals about the priority date,but   just tGC holder’s spouses  use  the priority date to file l485.

Thank you for the response. Let's say if i go to interview first and officer decide to put the i-485 on hold then my spouse withdraw i-130. Will it gonna effect my i-485?

Thank you @sandranj for your answer. But my attorney doesn’t want to hear anything . August 2019 filler, no prima facie , no ead, no money , no work.

Sandra just told you above that she had two cases that the officers put the I-485 on hold before the spouses withdrew the i-130 and it did not affect their applications. So, to answer your question, it won’t affect your I-485 if USCIS places your I-485 on hold before your spouse withdraws their application.
