I-360 (vawa) interview NYC. Pls help Vawa-2006

[savannah 1]

Hello,

I filed I-360 on 05/21/08. It was approved on 07/22/08. I have been scheduled for an interview at federal plaza on 09/17/08 based on a I485 that has been pending since 03/08/07.

I have a question about the medical exam. I had done the medical on 11/2006. I heard that its only valid for one year. i have not received a notice to do another medical and my interview is around the corner. Did you have to do another medical before you went for your adjustment interview?

I have addressed this post to vawa 2006 because i noticed that you are from nyc too. But if anyone else knows the answer please help. I do not want any more RFE's from uscis...my journey has been too long 6yrs..even though the vawa part of it was very, very fast.

Thanks

Savannah

Hi Savannah

How did your interview go? I couldn't see anything in your time line. I've finally recieved my Grenn Card. There is actually life after VAWA and I'm going to see my boys for Christmas after so long

Best wishes Shona

Hope the interview went well! I suspect you didn't need a new medical as yours was still valid when you applied for AOS and that is all that is required.

Hi y'all!

My interview went well. I have been meaning to write about my experience so here it goes.

My interview was scheduled for 9.30am. I got there at 9.00 with my attorney and waited until 11.30am when we were called. The interviewer was really nice. She swore me in then asked the "no" questions. She then asked for my original birth certificate, marriage certificate, tax transcripts for last year and a letter from my job. She told me that my security checks had been completed and I was approved. She asked if I had any questions, had none so she asked us to step outside for a minute. We waited about half hour then she called us back into her office and stamped my passport. I was very very happy.....UNDERSTATEMENT OF THEYEAR!!

I got the welcome letter on 9/22/08. On 9/23/08 I got the approval email from cris and 9/26/08 I got the card production email from cris too.

I'm expecting my card this week and can't wait to go visit my family too and start a new life faaaaar from my husband.

I followed this forum for years before I got the courage to apply for Vawa and would like to thank all who contribute. It really helps to see that others who have been in your situation overcame their obstacles.

Thanks!!!
