Does any state else but New York has i-485 interview waive?

It is not the local office that waives I-485, it is up to the adjudicator and current rules.  Post COVID 19, we will most likely return to in person interviewing.

If I added a minor request for adjustment way after mine but her 360 was approved will I get another receipt for her or they use my i485 receipt for her as well? 

It will have its own receipt number

Ah, finally a 2020 approval! Hopefully, it is not an anomaly and they have actually started looking at 2020 filers. Fingers crossed

You need to file the form to recant your lawyer.  If refile EAD, it maybe rejected or accepted that is the chance you are taking.  However, if you are refiling EAD because you believe it will change your address, it is not going to work.

That is not true.  Prior to COVID 19 every VAWA based I-485 had an interview.  

Thank you, I would trust your wisdom and legal experience. I enjoy being wrong on this forum. Paying someone doesn't necessarily get you the truth. Also, thank you @sandranj.

You are right and some die while their cases are pending with USCIS. Sometimes the USCIS officer will regret why he/she didn’t approve the case of the person before their death. They will remain with the application of a deceased person in their file and discard it. Vanity of vanity

he lost all my files ..I dnt even know where he is now ,he doesn’t pick calls for some months now ..uscis said they sent

1. You have been told by VJ members ( a number of times) I will repeat : The receipt number is SUFFICIENT for you to keep track of your filed I-765 …. And a Case Status Print out from USCIS should be enough to give u some comfort of holding a paper receipt…while you go about getting a copy of the “lost” one. 
 

2. Do not file another I-765 Application ( they are working on yours much like everyone else’s) JUST to be able to get a receipt. You will waste your money ( filing fee) and if based on fee waiver, you will waste gov’ts resources .

 

3. You have serious concerns about your attorney..so take action OTHER than vent . Write him a SHORT LETTER/DEMAND for a copy of your Complete File. Certified mail and also email and fax to his office….IF you are not in a position TO BANKROLL another attorney, who would happily do the at for you.

Dont know if your current attorney simply is too understaffed to take ALL your calls, log them in AND BILL you for each time he talks to you.. And mail does get lost ( even by US post office) , or as you claim in the Johnny Walker haze of attorney… unrelated, I personally have experienced NOT receiving mail , others sent even w tracking numbers ..

 

4. I am not sure if you are also in removal or just pending VAWA…in either case , do yourself a favor and limit your DIY..I am sure you have great qualities but managing your case may not be one of them. YOU want that approval so don’t shoot yourself in the foot.

 

4. File a FOIA , it’s free , will allow to see everything your attorney filed and how and will even include the Receipt u are chasing..will take a while BUT will come to YOUR address. 
 

Good luck

It’s makes me so comfortable for now 

 

good luck everyone , keep pushing and keep the faith

I think you must send another ead application. Include a letter explaining the situation of the lost of the first receipt notice. USCIS will return a response that you have another ead application pending and will give you another receipt number. Otherwise it’s hard for you to find another receipt number if it’s lost at the lawyer office

In your first post you said “ added her to your own”.. so please clarify if she was listed ( named ) as a derivative on YOUR I-360? If she was listed and you also included her own I-360 copy…and her I-485 form is unclear as to which I-360 she is using as basis for adjusting……they may just be confused and it’s floating.

 

Best u try calling to track the I-485 packet , call USCIS. And if no headway…and MONTHS have past since u filed it, PREPARE another I-485 based on her own I-360 and file it. It will not count against her/ you in any way but you will get receipts pretty quickly 
 

Thank you. So she had her own i360 approved vawa and stated she will be able to get work permit under derivative something like that. So I filed an 485 for her but I didn’t receive any receipt number about it. Just her 360 EAC number… now that I have my greencard will I use the same vawa process?

have my greencard

 

You just indicated you ALREADY have your green card so whatever you wrote in on the I-485 “ to add her to your I-485”  and ( not sure myself cause u did not answer..was she beneficiary or principal in that filing)  but I would guess it left mailroom confused , instead of a quick rejection ( with receipts) they sent somewhere for review….and it’s floating.

 

NOW that u clarified u already have your green card , DO the regular i-485/ I 765 /I 131 / I 864 W , new medical , and mark as Principal w her own I-360
