OMG!! Such disappointing response from her but don’t worry. You got this. My initial VAWA application was denied with an attorney. I didn’t give up a filed on my own and got the green card myself. It took 5 years!! I’m glad you’re getting all the support you need here. I’m confident that you’ll celebrate in the end. I sincerely wish you success. You’ll be victorious.

Great! Hope it works out.

Filing PERM is better than H-1B dear (if this option is available). Best advice that no one gave me: Try to get into any company that sponsors GC on day 1 assuming you have a current EAD - Meta, Google, Amazon, etc. I knew this too late and when I got in, they filed my GC while I worked on my VAWA case separately. Basically, I had two petitions at the same time. They also provide attorneys at no cost that helps tremendously.

Is anyone familiar with the process to request a return of documents from USCIS? As a former United Nations employee, there’re certain waivers that was attached to my original marriage petition in 2017. Filed 360 in 2018 VAWA was approved in 2022 Responded to the RFE for medical since November. Wondering why it’s stuck in this phase after I’ve relinquished all diplomatic rights since 2017. How so I request a return of I-508/I-566? These are immigration documents signed and stamped by the UN and country of origin.

Prayer never fails. Include fasting if possible. Maybe they wanna schedule an interview instead of direct approval with medical. Don’t be discouraged. You got this!

I received RFE for medicals after Vawa approval and sent the complete package last month. I just received an update for “initial review” and case has been transferred to to another USCIS office with jurisdiction over my case. Has anyone experienced something similar?

Sorry this happened to you. I emphasize with your situation having experienced the same disappointment with a half-baked attorney. Let’s thank God for your I-360 approval. It could have been worse with the interrogation. You can always get a replacement card. I should have been a citizen by now. My VAWA filed with an attorney was denied in 2017. I decided to file a new application on my own in 2018 and got it approved. They said I owe $6,000 in attorney fees for no guidance, no direction, didn’t review my declaration … I’d rather die, be born again and jailed for life before paying that money.
