Yes you need to file N-400. Usually USCIS will return entire file if there is a mistake specially out dated form submitted. They will send you a RFE if later they find the mistake. 

@balo101 Thank you so much ma'am

To liven up our suddenly quiet thread, here is our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

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

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS

 

You are good enough.  Not great, but there are far worse.

 

You never know what the future holds.  But I'll face it just like I face most days -- with crippling anxiety.

 

I am exactly where I want to be.  At home, avoiding people.

 

I love it when I'm just moving along through my day and randomly find myself thinking of a traumatic moment from my past and my brain is immediately like, "But wait -- there's more!"

 

Today I will work on not hating myself.  I will hate everyone else instead.

 

Not every day is precious.  Waste today -- you deserve it.

 

Have a meltdown.  As a treat.

 

Your feelings are valid.  Just maybe have fewer of them.

 

Some days are better than others.  Especially the ones when I don't have to interact with other people.

 

Mornings are for coffee and dissociation.

:P

Hi everyone,

 

I am a past VAWA recipient and filed my citizenship 2 years and 9 months as my spouse was a us citizen.

I filed online and just followed the instructions online. I do not have any information regarding paper filing. I found it easier to file online because the update documents uscis sends you in the mail can be found online in your uscis account before you get them in the mail. 


July 28 2023 - We received your form N-400 ( online application) 
August 10 2023 - We are actively reviewing your form N-400 nothing shows outstanding at the moment (biometric waived) 
September 27 2023 - We scheduled your interview for your for N-400
November 2 20203 - Interview (only asked questions on the form my name, place of employment, date of birth etc., did the oral, written, and history test. I call it history test) and he scheduled my oth ceremony on spot and gave me the information to take to the oath ceremony 
December 1 2023 Oath Ceremony

 

i am currently in the processes of filing for my mom and just a month after submitting her application they requested the medical which I didn’t send with the application and we are about to get her biometric done. 
 

Good luck to everyone on their journey.

My VAWA got approved few 3 months ago, updated online, received email and got text message of approval but I am yet to receive the paper notice. I have tried congress person, but no progress. Any other person experienced this?

Contact your senator. You can also do FOIA request. FOIA would take 4 to 6 weeks.
