I really don’t know. The interview went well. The IQ very pleasant before and after interview.

Maybe an infopass to find out the where abouts if your GC? I read previous post that it should not be longer than 180 days after interview.

I will pray hard so you can get it soon!

What about after VAWA approval changing the address for the I-485 that has been with the local office pending? When I changed my address last year my attorney did it with them and the message on the USCIS website says: On (date) your request to change your address, referral number ... was completed. Does that mean they changed it?

The address must be changed with Vermont Service Center.

 

Yes they changed your address.

Yes they changed your address.

Thank you for your answer Sandra. 

I don’t think they changed it with Vermont though. They contacted the local office to change the address and that’s the message I see when I log into my USCIS account.

Hi Everyone!

 

I am looking for advice here. My ex hired a lawyer who was to represent us. This lawyer is now demanding money from me because he wanted to attend the interview with us. He is calling obsessively, is there anything I can do to fight this? I am pretty sure he is in touch with my ex.

Was your signature on a written contract -- were you involved in contracting for his services?  If not, I would be inclined to do the following:  tell him to take a long walk off a short pier (actually, tell him that you're not the financially responsible party) and tell him to stop contacting you.  If he calls after that, tell him that you're reporting him to the police for harassment and to the State Bar for violation of professional ethics.

 

If, however, your signature IS on a written contract, that's a different matter, and Sandra here can best advise you.  In fact, if Sandra's advice contradicts mine here, do what she says, not what I recommend.

Thank you! you made me laugh lol :)

 

Unfortunately, my signature is on it. I wasn't really that knowledgeable about lawyers before i came here.

 

That lawyer made so many mistakes on I-485 that my current lawyer had to file a new form.......

Laugh = great; contract = bummer.

Follow what Sandra says, then.

 

I'd be inclined to tell the guy that I'm countersuing because of the incompetently completed I-485.

Or, say innocently, "Didn't you get our letter in which we told you that you're fired?"

Remember, too, that 99% of all lawyers give the rest of them a bad name.

I spoke to my lawyer today who basically laughed at me saying having an EAD card under VAWA is not an approval. My status online just says card mailed and I didn't get the accompanying letter/ notice of action. Someone told me about a link where it can be requested but as it is in care of the lawyer I'm not sure if I should use it. 

 

Ugh. The struggle.
