VAWA, Part 27

[Poupis 52]

Good morning!

I have decided I'm going to send my medicals without them asking. I literally sent my files in November 2017, I'm so over this process. It took almost 7 years ( I don't know why ) to get my VAWA approved (september 2023), I don't have any court, came with a visa, no criminal record etc So at this point I have nothing to lose by sending my medical lol - when I call USCIS they say the last update was Biometrics done back in September and no other update since then

Should I just sent it along with my 485 receipt only or should I write a letter saying more information? 

 

Also sometimes I feel like just sending a new I485 with my vawa approval. What do you guys think about that?

 

Thank you

Are you expecting an interview? When is your interview?

I do have an interview in less than two weeks. Do they really ask for your the original Marriage certificate with the abuser?
I have the wedding date on the original Divorce Decree.

Hello All, my Citizenship interview is next week. I was scrutinized during Greencard interview about how i met ex-spouse etc. Mine was a legit marriage and by gods grace my gc was approved.

 

I got my divorce my abuser spouse after receiving greencard. 
 

- Yesterday i received email notification saying ‘Action was taken on your case’. But nothing shows in uscis site. Should i be worried?

- What can i expect in USC interview?

- what documents do i carry?

 

Thank you for your time’

No, tons of people receive such messages without any actual action on the website.

In hopes of compelling more approvals and good news (that is, if correlation = causation), we present here our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

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

AS INSTRUCTED

 

Two hunters were out one day and were about to shoot a buck.  Suddenly, one of the hunters clutched his chest and fell to the ground.  The other hunter, in shock, called 9-1-1.

 

The operator said, "9-1-1; what's your emergency?"

 

The hunter nervously said, "My friend just collapsed, and I think he's dead!"

 

The operator responded, "OK; can you make sure?"

 

A gunshot was heard over the phone.

 

"Done.  Now what?"

Hello fam,

Its been a year since I had my Vawa approval but there is no update on my i-485. When I reached out to congress person for update uscis repiled asking to provide a letter stating i am adult and waive 8 USC Section 1367. Has any ony one experienced this as well and if yes please share if there is a form for the same.

I am not sure why are they just sitting on my case and not moving at all and not providing any details as well. I am getting very anxious.

8 USC 1367 is privacy protections for stuff like VAWA and T/U visas. What they really want is a Privacy Act release form. Ask the representative to provide you with one, then you will need to fill it out, print it out, sign it, and mail/fax it over back to them.

 

USCIS verifies identity by comparing the signatures.

 

 

 

If they already got one and now are just unhappy about it for some weird reason you can just write something like:

 

My name is [Your name] A#XXX-XXX-XXX, born on [Date of Birth]. I hereby authorize under 8 USC 1367(a)(2) and (b)(4) a release of information regarding case number(s): [Receipt numbers here] to the office of [Congressman/Congresswoman/Senator] [Their first and last name], and allow them to further inquire on my behalf.

 

___________

[Your name]

 

Then sign and date that and also include a copy of an ID to further prove that you're an adult, mail or fax this to the the rep's office.
