Good morning everyone!

 

My EAD renewal form (I-765) was received by USCIS on May 17 and updated on June 14 as follows:

As of June 14, 2021, fingerprints relating to your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, have been applied to your case.

 

From your experience, any clue on how long it will take to receive the new EAD? I know this process is taking forever for everyone...

 

Thanks and have a great week!

It depends.

Did you pay for your I-485? If yes then those are free!

 

If you did not pay for i-485 then

EAD will cost you $410 and AP will cost you &575.

This is my second time to renew, the first one i got it without payment.  But i think i need to pay for this right?

Hello family, 

I just received a orange letter from National benefit center said that my medical are expired but I don’t have to send anything at the moment. Looks like I485 is moving to local office, am I right? 
case was officially approved 23 days ago while “card being produced” update was received 10 days before. 
 

im from nyc (brooklyn), hope to receive soon interview notice or RFE for medicals! 
if anyone want to share timeline for reference please send over!

Hello Family,

 

I received the response from the senator. if you all can interpret and tell me how long it will take based on assumption and experience that will be great. 

 

 

Thank you for your inquiry dated September 8, 2021, on behalf of your constituent, Mr.  regarding his pending Form I-485 Permanent Residence/Adjust Status.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records confirm that Mr.  case is under review with an Immigration Services Officer at the Albuquerque Field Office. USCIS is committed to adjudicating immigration benefits in a timely and efficient manner while also ensuring public safety, national security and compliance with all relevant directives. While the processing steps for most applications or petitions are completed quickly, a small percentage of cases involve unresolved issues that may result in adjudication delays.

USCIS is unable to render a decision on your constituent's application until certain issues are resolved. USCIS is striving to resolve these issues as soon as possible. We are unable to determine at this time when the review process for the application will be completed.

Hi Community,

My I-485 got approved today without interview and I wanted to thank all of you who gave me pieces of advise and information during this VAWA journey.

I wanted to share my timeline and advise for those who currently is surfing through here and looking for info:

 

August 25, 2018 - US Entry on a K-1 Visa

September 14, 2018 - Marriage

September 28, 2018 - I-485 Application (together with EAD+AP)

October 2, 2018 - NOA 1 I-485 (biometrics took place 3 weeks later)

January 2019 - EAP+AP approved

April 2019 - Divorce

April 24, 2019 - I-360 Application (applied with a lawyer, but moving forward acted on my own without lawyer's help)

September 2019 - Sent in more evidence on my own by reading this forum (I think my lawyer didn't include those docs on purpose in order to get RFE and charge me more). Please note that I sent in more evidence on my own without receiving a request for it twice total (once divorce paperwok and another time police clearances and my birth certificate).

3 times extended EAD + AP while waiting for I360 decision based on still pending I485.

May 24, 2021 - I360 Case Was Approved

August 2021 - I485 Request for updated medicals (my original medicals expired 1 months prior to this request)

September 27, 2021 - I485 Approval (Card being Produced status)

 

To all of you who is reading - I think very important for you to know that you are allowed to submit evidence for your I360 case (if you think your case is missing something) on your own without a lawyer. I only used an attorney in the first place because I didn't know about VAWA at all and I needed urgent help. But after reading this forum even the attorney I worked with was telling me that I know too much and I could do it on my own, etc. After I read the case she prepared I found that there were multiple mistakes made with names of people, facts, dates etc etc (I had to send another letter to Vermont to just correct her mistakes) and also some docs needed for this case were missing, which I think my attorney didn't put there on purpose. Those docs are required for a decision on I360 for sure. So by not including it my attorney planned to get an RFE...and her contract with me would oblige me for another $1000 to reply to an RFE. So when I started reading this forum I took this under my complete control and figured that my attorney is acting against my best interest. Another GREAT piece to this story is that my attorney assistant once called me and said that the attorney is not honest and that she purposely is not doing things I asked her to do, purposely missed docs, purposely was not even providing me the copy of my case for a few weeks...and her assistant actually recommended me to report her to the board of attorneys which I didn't do yet, but I will now that my cases are all done and I do not need her anymore for anything at all. But yeah people please be careful with attorneys please - mine was basically trying to suck the moneys out without providing the best service possible.

Luckily for me from the beginning I refused to add my attorney to my I485 case and once I360 was approved we kind of are done already.

 

Summary: I485 took 3 years exactly and I360 took 2 years and 1 month.

Good luck to everyone who is still waiting, you will get there soon!

 

Congratulations hun🥳

Hi! 
 

When did you get you VAWA approval? 

I’m in NYC too (queens), got my VAWA approved on March 2021 and still haven’t heard a thing about my I485, no online updates either. 
 

I already reached out to Sen. Gillibrand but no response and I just recently asked my congressperson for help.

Hi Fam! 
 

It’s been awhile since I visited this forum 😅

 

Sept 2018 filer here and VAWA has been approved March 2021. NY location.

 

How do I get an update for my I485? No news of it yet and online status doesn’t provide information.

 

How long does it take to get an interview after VAWA approval in NYC?

You must go base on the processing time for the NYC Local office, NYC is taking around 12 to 20 months to adjudicate I-485 after vawa approval. Mine took 17 months. but i have seen other take 12 months so it depends.

unfortunately EAD renewals are taking 9-12 months. This is the biggest backlog I have ever seen in renewals specially after they put it 2years validation.

Does anybody with pending I360 has a business? Was wondering about EIDL loan... Have a 2 year EAD and a business for many years etc etc. Does anybody have any experience with SBA and EIDL loans and stuff with our current situation? After reading all documents on SBA website says that we might qualify but need real life experience actually

Thanks

Yes I applied and they deny my application. I have send all my USCIS receipts including the Prima Facie, but they said my status doesn't qualify.
