It has already been explained several times that when you activate an account with https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/, you will receive emails that state we are still reviewing your case.  It is NOT a USCIS glitch, and you will receive this email ALL the time while your applications are being adjudicated.    You will receive these emails for each case you added to your account such as 360, 485, 131, and 765.

 

 

We are still reviewing your case and there are no updates at this time   We will notify you when your case status changes. We last took action on your case on June 5, 2018.

 

 

Thanks for your response to that but whenever I check my case status online for both i485 & i360, there's nothing showing or it's been updated. Is it okay for that to happen?

Is there a difference in waiting time if the abuser is LPR ?

There is no difference in the waiting time for VAWA petitioners, but if the former spouse is not an US.Citizen then the waiting time is different to file I-485.

Thanks Iwillsurvive answer,
What kind of evidence did you present to USCCIS when you sent your case? Did you only submit the affidavit?
I understood that, if a case is not submitted for physical abuse, then a psychological evaluation was mandatory.
Thanks for your help and guidance !!

 

It's not mandatory to submit a psychological evaluation, but when the person doesn't a police report or a restraining order then it's advised to submit a psychological evaluation.

Check the number of your case to see if the interview was regarding the AOS that you filed when living with your husband. 

 

If the person doesn't attend the interview then USCIS will deny the AOS. If they deny the AOS then file a new one, and send a letter to the local office asking them not to issue  the NOTICE TO APPEAR,  submit a  copy of the post office receipt along with the letter, but if you had your VAWA petition approved then you should file a motion to reopen.

When your AOS was denied your EAD became null and void. If it will be an issue or not just the immigration officer can ask you this question.

Thank you Sandranj for your response, am just scared,

Hi everyone, I have some questions that I need help with. My EAD expired last month. I did not bother much about renewal because my mind was focused on putting my evidence together for my vawa case. i finally filed my vawa case and it was received on may 18, 2018. I received a 797c receipt notice with my vawa receipt number 2 weeks ago. I went ahead to book an infopass to go and inform uscis that i have filed vawa and i have a reciept number and all. my info pass is on friday June 22nd 2018 which is 3 days away. I also sent in an application for renewal of my EAD yesterday and from my tracking it was delivered today.

Now that i have been reading about prima fascie. i am confused. my question is

1) Was i suppose to get a prima fascie before applying for renewal of my EAD?

2) If the answer to the first question above is yes, then what is the procedure of requesting for a prima fascie and what other advice would you give me going forward? Thank you all for your responses as i await them.

You don’t need the PF to apply for a I765. Now if understand correctly you just sent your Vawa application so how are u going to renew your EAD? You need to apply for a new EAD through your vawa.

Applying for a new EAD through Vawa means i have to wait until my vawa application is approved before i will get a work permit. That option is not feasible for me now. I need to work now. Thats why i said i came across prima fascie and i am confused how it works. I already sent in a renewal application 2 days and i dont have prima fascie. Did i do the right thing?

Prima Facie has nothing to do with your EAD or your ability to work. 

The Prima Facie letter allows you to apply for certain public benefits while your VAWA petition is pending (such as FAFSA, food stamps, etc.). 

 

If you have a pending I-485, you can apply for your EAD under category C9, meaning it will take about 3-5 months for you to receive the new EAD. If you apply for EAD under category C31, you have to wait for your VAWA to be approved (15+ months) in order to receive your EAD. It all depends which category you marked on your I-765 application.

I would look up a police station that offers live scan/fingerprinting. They can issue police clearance for you. Just give the station’s hotline a call.
