After looking up the terms of annulment, I can safely say there is no grounds he can stand on for this

Amen to that..all the best. If there's any confusion, talk to the house!😊👍

I have an interview appt on August 18th. I found out today by a phone call from my pro bono. She only came to office once a week and found out my appt notice issued at early July. 

 

I have 6 days to prepare and no way i can contact the pro bono. 

 

Please help me

 

1. Form i864w,  do i have to carry it with me. I dont even know how to fill it yet? Can i fill it by my self or must be under the probono preresentative? 

 

2. There is no way i can complete a i693 on time. So i have a appt with uscis dr on Friday,  08/16/2020. I will ask dr office a paper/reciept as proof that i tried my best to fulfill requirements. Hopefully they conduct my interview

 

3. Do i have to bring all application,  including i360 form,  my affidavit,  my friends affidavit,  police report,  pictures? 

 

4. Since the furlough is seemed official,  how is that affected to our chance to be approved?  

 

Fyi,  my i765 was out of normal processing time. I contacted my congressman and uscis sent a letter to my probono told me that they wont discuss my case with 3rd party (congressman office). I informed congressman office and they agreed they were 3rd party. So in my case congressman was not helpful. 

 

I also submit form ar-11 to change my mailing address. Never had any mail from them either.

 

Even now with appt notice,  my online case status is still "finger print was taken". 

 

Pretty much messed up right now

 

All input are appreciated

 

Thank you

1. Been a while since I've seen a I-864W since they're no longer used (though I suppose that they still take them for whoever filed I-485 back before it was changed). You can fill it out on your own without a problem. Only things it asks for is your information (name, address, date of birth, place of birth, A-number, SSN) and why are you claiming an exemption from filing I-864 (Box 1.d.) "I am filing for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status as a battered spouse or child using Form I-360", and you sign the requestor's signature and date it. It's probably the easiest form out there.

2. The safest option would be to ask them to reschedule the interview. Otherwise you can try to risk it going in without the I-693, hopefully they'll give you an RFE for it after the interview. They pretty much cannot approve you without it however.

3. No, the interview only pertains to whether or not you're admissible, they should not ask any questions related to the previously approved VAWA petition.

4. If the furlough does happen either they'll keep your interview and issue a decision, or they will cancel it and reschedule later.

😊ll the best dear, may God go with you!🙏👍

Its always pleasure and delightful to talk to you. I belived God answer my prays. I only inquired about my EAD,  he give me i485 interview. He has the best for us,  way better than what we expected or imaged. 

 

I still remember those encouraging responses from you a year ago when my i360 was almost death. I wish i could be as kind and optimistic as you. God bless you @Stillwinning!!!😊

@Demise: i think i would take a risk.  I also want to ask an officer if my ead still valid to work.  They dont answer to the congressman or my inquiry online twice. No hope with the pro bono will help me out with anything but filing i485 last year.  Hopefully with that interview i can ask an officer.  Being able to work is important since most of us are excluded from all the stimulus check while EDD is like heavy traffice jam barely move anywhere.  

 

Keep praying for miracle

As long as you filed the renewal I-765 while the previous EAD was still valid then the receipt notice extends the previous EAD for 180 days.

I dont have c31 in hands. My pro bono said she never reveived it. I only have c14 in hands. Dont know if it counted for 180 days extension

Well nevermind then, C14 (Deferred Action) is not eligible for automatic extensions. Why didn't they file C9 with the AOS for you?

Smiles..😊thanks for these kind words.💖 God will see you through🙏..HE saw me through! Whatever you do don't ask to be rescheduled! You have been blessed enough to receive an interview date..do not throw it away! People have been waiting and still are! It's best to receive RFE for the medicals...which you'll send in and be approved consequently! Go through the i485 questions..it's really nothing to be tensed about..I've been through it..hopefully you get inputs from folks who have experienced the GC interview, that will be most helpful. If you're confused about anything, the house is here for you beautiful!😊👍

Does somebody know what kind of inteview on I-485 would be after vawa approved? What kind of questions they ask? How long it takes?

Also,is it possible to get approved I-485 without interview at all?

Thanks

Ok so I've been through the interview..the experience is different for everyone depending on the officer you get..it's nothing uniform..except the yes or no questions on the i485 form. Be aware that even though it's out of place for an officer to ask questions about abuse etc..it's not unexpected! They might ask about your husband..if you're still married or divorce..they can pretty much ask anything be prepared...on the flip side they might not ask anything but the security questions..best to go very prepared! I wasn't asked anything but the yes or no questions..it was pretty quick for me..yes some cases have been approved without interview. This is totally at the discretion of the adjudicating officer..but the trend we've seen are mostly people who filed i485 after VAWA approval..for some unclear reasons..they are the ones who've benefited from the sans interview! Goodluck!😊👍

I used pro bono asstistance from NGO. 

 

In my i360 phase,  they said its safe to not concurrently file all in one. I believed them. Few months later, i found out VJers,  tried to reach them again. They said my case is only allowed conxurrently filed at the same time. LIAR. 🤮

 

From here i knew my i360 missed some papers. Contacted pro bono to submit them. They said : wait for RFE. I asked them about blue paper so i would submit by myself,  they said :WAIT

 

there are some more annoyed delayed from my case directly related to that NGO counselor. 

 

when my case got approved after 2 years waiting, i talked to tge supervisor and they changed a different counselor. 

 

since i485,  i missed 2 biometrics appt because of NGO mailing system😭. Thats why i filed AR11,  contacting congressman on my own relatef to EAD c14

 

i am considered myself lucky because this interview i have 6 days to prepare. Eventhough uscis issue notice at early July. Thanks to that NGO amd my own experience,  i would rather ask you guys,  VJ family,  than try to reach the counsellors.  And the fact they dont go to office lately,  cant reach them on phone or email. VJ is the only resource i have

 

also because of all related stuffs with NGO working style,  reschedule or ask them to file any paper on my behalf is luxury.

 

my plan is going to interview,  ask the officer about my EAd. Even if i am lucky enough, hopefully they will hand me Rfe for medical. If rfe would be sent to NGO by mail,  it would have been another 90 day waiting that cousellor to find out in their NGO mailbox.

 

thats why i cannot reschedule

My EAD Renewal.

 

Hello everybody,  I applied for my EAD renewal in the beginning of May 2020. My payment for the renewal was taken out of my account ($410) as ACH by uscis on 5/12/20. I was unable to see the receipt number since i can not view the image of the check front or back. I did not receive any receipt in the mail. All of a sudden yesterday I received my approval notice for the EAD Renewal (C09) in the mail.  It took almost 3 months. Now I have the receipt number and looking forward to see update on the card production message. What a relief.

Why did they charge for a renewal? Did you get the I-485 fee waived?

Question for everyone, I left my abusive husband/partneron Saturday and it feels good.  However, he is threatening to annul the marriage (which i don't believe he has any grounds to stand on).  My current I-130/I-485 AoS is in progress, in fact I have my biometrics on the 20th.

 

In the chance of my partner withdraws the affidavit  of support, how quickly do I have to submit my VAWA papers without needing to resubmit everything?

If he withdraws the affidavit of support the case will be denied right way, but USCIS takes at least 30 days to issue the Notice to appear in Court ,you should submit your petition  as soon as possible.

Any idea what date range is being processed for i360 at vermont right now? My relative filed for i360 in September 2019. When can she expect to hear back.
