Medicals are not required for vawa adjudication.  However, you may send in evidences that can help your i360 petition anytime before your case is decided! USCIS will request Medicals if needed at the point of i485 processing. Judging from your timeline, it may be requested..just wait for it!😊👍

Thank you, I would wait for the RFE,  I am hoping some sort of update, but I-485 was filed in November 2019 and just show's finger prints applied, as of January 29 2020, nothing so far and Prima facia expired 25th December 2020.

Hello, 

 

I posted last week that my I-765 C9 has fallen outside of the normal processing times. My attorney has recommended that I call the USCIS Customer Contact Center, however when I spoke to a live agent they said that they cannot discuss any aspect of my application due to the confidential nature of VAWA. I reached out to my congresswoman’s office but I still haven’t heard back from them. What other options do I have to inquire about my case? The agent I spoke to recommended I write to the service center, but I’m not sure if my I-765 is at VSC or NBC ( I did not file my I-485 & I-765 concurrently with I-360; I filed them only after my I-360 was approved). Any help or insights are greatly appreciated, please. 

If you filled it after i-360 approved. most likely its in Vermont. Write to vermont or reach out to your senator or Ombudsman.

Hello folks,

I applied for the VAWA case in April 20th 2019 and have received 3 or 4  Prima Facie’s so far. And i never got RFE request for my case. 

 

I contacted the my Congresman about 10 days ago and they emailed me a few days later that they had contacted USCIS.  
I just want to ask you 2 questions.  Please help me.

 

1-) How many days, on average, do you think, the USCIS gives a response to Congresman?  
 

2-) Can I contact  to the Senators if I didn’t get any help from Congresman? I live in NJ and i have 2 senators in here.

Hi my Vawa family,

 

I posted something few weeks back but didnt hear from anyone. I will request some help here. My scenario is i got y EAD under cc31 but it ca,e with my married name because i was married when i applied for vawa. Now i am divorced and have my maiden name back. therefore this leaves e with a name mismatch but I have divorce decree to justify. My concern is that If i get hired, and hey run through the EAD verification and see the name mismatch, will my employer reject me? or is it minor issue and can be accepted? Pls help me as I am applying for jobs. Thank you A LOT for everything you do for the family. @sandranj mam if you can advice on this pls. @TBoneTX @Stillwinning!!!😊 any idea? Thank you fam in advance ❤️
