Hello family. I’m crying my heart out. Today I received this and I don’t know how could I possibly find the strength to keep going. 
I’m November 2018 applicant. 
my lawyer asked me to think of what could have caused this eventually even if she believes could be a total randomness. I never even had a speed ticket in my life. 

I read here stories of pending VAWAs stock in security check for years. Would you minding giving me some additional information?

Really sorry to hear this. But that's all there is to know..it does take time but some resolves faster than others. I hope yours resolves sooner. Please find the strength to accept and keep holding on. You must not give up now. This is a journey of survivors..so be strong!💪❤👍

Hello my dear. You are always the sweetest. Do you know if a pending security check can jeopardize a combo card renewal?

Not at all honey. Always renew your documents on time. Doesn't affect it in any way!😊👍

Hey everyone. I posted a while back, uscis was asking for other people besides me to go to i485 interview. . It was a mistake of course. I think they were asking for my abuser to go. I contacted congressman and they spoke with immigration and gave me an interview date of Nov 9th. 

 

I will call to make an appointment for physical tomorrow. My question.  How long does it take for them to give you results ? 

 

 

 

Usually the doctors give the results within 48/72 hours.

It's basically a non-answer. It's delayed, we're working on it, go away.

 

Honestly sometimes an inquiry will manage to get a case unstuck, but most of the time you'll just get this. I inquired both about my DACA and my VAWA via my congressman. Got a reply that the DACA is pending with VSC and that VAWA is pending with the VAWA team at VSC. My DACA was actually approved the following day after they responded, and my VAWA is still pending a month later, but in my case I think there's a lot of things that are holding it up, namely I was RFE'd for bona fides of my marriage due to being in removal proceedings like 12 years before I got married, a prior approved I-130 which to the best of my knowledge is still at the NVC, and me making an untested legal argument (basically a petition based on the same marriage being approved previously being sufficient evidence to get another bona fide marriage exemption under 8 CRF 245.1 (c)(8)(v)) which could trigger some sort of review by someone higher up (like the AAO).

I have a lot of cases filed in April and May 2018 and the USCIS didn't adjudicate the cases yet.

Hi Everyone! I am writing to report back from my initial marriage interview - maybe helpful to some. 

 

I no longer live in NY so I came in to the city just for the reason of the interview. Had to take 2 days off my work but its ok. I walked in and got a ticket, the interview was supposed to be at 8:50 am. I have an attorney for my VAWA case and she said she will appear telephonically and told me to give them the package and the attorney representation form. Well, its about 11 am now and I am waiting. Do not got to inquire about my ticket since I was scared to be "noisy" you know. Be patient with immigration they say. Sat there for a while until 3 hours have passed and I went to the window to ask. They said they issued a wrong ticket and notified the supervisor, in about 30 mins I was interviewed. I handled the officer my package and said my attorney is appearing telephonically. They looked at the form and said they cant call the lawyer since they didn't sign the form. I looked at it and indeed my attorney forgot to sign the form. I texted the attorney and they said to look into the VAWA package and there is a signed copy of the form. The officer said they don't accept the copies. Although later, my lawyer sent me a USCIS statement that copies of signatures are acceptable during Corona. The officer said that they are proceeding to the interview without a lawyer. I was so scared. He started asking me marriage based questions. He was asking details of our neighborhood, his info, parents etc...Then the asked about the abuse part with "what happened" and "how was he abusive". I started describing and started CRYING. (I always do when someone asks about it) I also cry through my therapy sessions when asked. Anyways, I couldn't continue speaking and he said "let's continue with easier questions" and was asking basic date questions and typical I485 questions. I was there for a while. When I got out, he went to take a copy of my passport (not sure why) and then let me out. I asked him to hold my 485 and he said yes. Not sure what all this torture was for. Called my lawyer afterwards and she said she will contact his supervisor etc etc and I told her not to to not made them mad and cancel my 485. She said she wouldn't (don't know about that) I think this is a total mistake on the part of the lawyers. It didn't occur to me to look to check if they gave me the right signed copy, was just not thinking about their signatures but they should have known... 

 

Anyways, because of 3 hour wait and then the actual interview I missed my flight back. I was hysterically crying coming out and was shaking, I think I scared other immigrants, lol. I hoped I wouldn't cry during the interview. I hope I can start controlling it some time soon.
