Hi Guys, when I filed my I360 form I included a I765 form under C31 category. My I360 it seems was approved last week and uscis mail me a card yesterday. Today I received this notification with the denial of the I765. Anyone knows if something is wrong with my case , or if this is normal because my I360 was already approved?.

Since you are getting C31 they denied c09. nothing to worry about.

Hello to you all. I need some information. My I-360 were approved on Sep 2019. after that I haven't heard back from USCIS except when i renew my work permit. I don't know if it is transferred to local office from Vermont. But today I get a biometrics appointment for 12/3/21. What does it mean? does it mean it is transferred? Do i need to do medical? (I didn't get the notice) and how long for the interview after the biometrics? Thank you! 

No point in doing medicals right now, they will first send the i693 medical deficiency/courtesy notice and then they'll send RFE for medicals if they want to skip your interview. If they want to interview you they'll send interview notice after courtesy notice. you can get your medical done after you get either RFE for medicals or interview notice. If they interview you, you just need to take the medicals with you to the interview. In case of RFE, you send medicals to USCIS after you get RFE.

Good day all,

 

Please can a vawa applicant use Prima facia to obtain student loan/financial aid?

If he filed vawa and concurrently filed for work permit, he should wait for it to work lawfully.

Working without a permit is unlawful. Tell your friend to respect the laws of the country he is seeking to stay in legally. He can apply for government benefits with prima facie meanwhile. 

I agreed and suggested same to him, even offered money till he get his EAD. but he is like, i already made a mistake, i dont want to be burden on taxpayers, if i can earn on my own. He is still waiting for the EAD. Hope god gives him sense to do the right thing and follow the law.

USCIS will forgive the time he worked without work permit, but AFTER filing Vawa he  should not break the Law and he must work with work permit.

Thank you @sandranj, conveyed the same message, hope he will understand the severity and not work illegally.

I called USCIS and rep told me to write to USCIS. My question is if i do not have receipt number how would this gonna help me. 

mention your Alien number, i recommend wait for 8-10 weeks in total before writing to USCIS. I was panicked like you, i did not received I-131 receipt and wrote too many(which i think too many) letters and then got my 2nd RFE. May be no relation but i got my AP. so they are working on it, just have some patience, you should be good

It is Wednesday already, and time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

=============================================

THE HELICOPTER LESSON

 

A blonde was taking helicopter lessons.

 

The instructor said, "I'll radio you every 1,000 feet to see how you're doing."

 

At 1,000 feet, the instructor radioed her and said that she was doing fine.

 

At 2,000 feet, he said that she was still doing well.

 

Just before she got to 3,000 feet, the propeller stopped, and she twirled to the ground.  The instructor ran to where she had crash-landed and pulled her out of the helicopter. "What went wrong?!" he asked.

 

The blonde said, "At 2,500 feet, I started to get cold, so I turned the big fan off."
 

lol ha ha ha,

Hi Fam!!!

 

So I just had my I485 interview this morning at NYC Federal Plaza and went by myself. It wasn’t that bad but it left me puzzled!

 

The interview itself only took 5-10 mins but the waiting time was 1 hour. 
 

The lady officer was nice and very professional.

Here are all the questions she asked me:

 

1. Do you have your passport? (I gave her my recent passport but she was looking for my old one when I first entered the US, didn’t have it with me, so I apologized for not bringing it)

 

2. Where is your husband?

3. When was the last time you saw him?

4. What are your old addresses together?

5. How long did you live in your address? (I might have messed this up because i can’t remember honestly since it was in 2017, but i gave her dates, just not sure if it was right) 

 

 

6. What was his old address?

7. What’s his mom’s name?

8. How did u meet?

9. Do you have any more proof that your marriage is legitimate? ( I said no more but I brought our marriage cert, she said it’s okay she has a copy)

 

10. What’s your current marital status? (Still married but i showed her my divorce papers that I just filed and it’s still on process ) 

 

11. Do you have your medical? (Handed her my medical) 

 

12. When was your last entry in the US? (Answered her and she asked if I have my recent I94)
 

She then proceed to the Yes and No questions. 

 

The only documents she asked from me was my passport, state ID, medical and I94. I thought she was going to ask for my old EAD/AP cards but she didn’t even ask for it then she told me that this interview is over and handed me Notice of Interview Results and if there’s anything they would mail me for updates. And That’s how my interview went. She didn’t say if it was approved or not. 
 

Was I supposed to bring more proof of bonafide marriage? I wasn’t even prepared for that.  
 

What should I expect next?

Is it possible for them to schedule me for another interview or RFE since I didn’t bring my old passport and more proof of bonafide marriage?

Good night everyone

i was wondering is it normal for me to receive a receipt notice for my I-131 renewal without getting one for my I-765? I’ve normally received both envelopes on the same day

Hello, I had the same notice. It means that when your I360 approved you are eligible to get your C31  automatically. That's why they mailed you your work permit. They deny your I-765 because you already have a work permit and you do not need another one. You are perfectly fine.

Hey guys, i received a NOID last week that I'm working on. But today i just received a prima facie (4th one). It looks like this prima facie determination means nothing. How can they issue a PF when my application is deniable ? Strange
