You marriage is valid. They made a  clerical error, you need to have this corrected ok, once they correct  the date your birth they will issue a new marriage certificate showing the correct information. Once you get the new marriage certificate submit to the USCIS and explained what happened.

You are amazing thank you for your help can i bring the hopefully corrected Marriage Certificate with me to the interview and explain that to the IO or should i submit the new one Marriage Certificate after i received it? 

Once again thank you @sandranj

How is it so long after approval? Do you think this is related to trump or has it always been so bad for vawa cases?

Pretty much always this bad.  Hang in there.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

Ugh. Everyone puts so much emphasis on approval. I had no idea until recently that there was at least another two years after to wait. I have been very scared to use advance parole but I think I will use it once my vawa is approved.

Hey dear long time, I hope you're keeping safe? anyway Congressional inquiry remains a very valuable resource you should inquire through your Congressman or senator...I went to three different offices, if one isn't productive try another! Sometimes these cases take long and it's different for every case... so just be patient while waiting for a response from your Congressperson okay? it's not an easy journey.. but you'll be alright!👍😊

Thank you Stillwinning. Truth very frustrating. My congressman got response from USCIS that my case was pending background check,that was in October, contacted a Senior's office this year,no response yet.

your post gives me hope, because our timelines are so similar, I am just couple of months behind you (My i360 was filed February  2019 and it was approved in August 2020) and I am also in NYC! 
I will be hoping for some good news for myself soon hopefully!

congratulations again!

Yes I received 4 work permits in general. 3 based on the pending I-485, and one right after VAWA was approved. Renewals typically took 3-5 months. I always applied for a renewal in January, and the EADs were typically approved by March-May.
