VAWA, Part 16

[Ana FL 242]

For the ones who have reached out to congressmen for help, how long did it take for them to get in touch with USCIS and back to you? 
TIA!

Depends I went in person they contacted USCIS when I was in their office, and I got an answer right there, Few days passed I email them proof they contacted me 3 days later to confirm everything was received and accepted by USCIS. I am in NYC.

hello everyone,

I applied for Vawa last May 2019 I got my receipt notice, My EAD combo card based on my marriage expired in august 2019. I would like to renew my combo card since my i485 based on my old petition is still pending and I haven't got my interview yet, I am kinda of confused where to send my renewal form is it Vermont or Chicago. when I called Uscis couple of times some of them telling me Chicago other ones are telling me Vermont. I am confused now

thanks

Vermont happens to be the correct place!👍 If you've been reading posts here..you'll see it's the right place since you've petitioned for i360! Sandra the attorney here has said it too a million times!💁

If you have a pending VAWA case due to the VAWA Confidentiality Provision everything involving you and your cases is must be sent to VERMONT SERVICES CENTER, Even if you sent renewal to  CHICAGO they will redirected to Vermont (it can take months) once they see your have a pending I-360. This is a matter of protection and privacy only handles by Vermont Services Center.  Even if your I-485 was initially file at Chicago and you interview is schedule once the officer see the I-360 receipt he will also sent your I-485 to be further process by Vermont if he decided on his own discretion.

I contacted my congressman in boca raton  two weeks ago and they still haven’t got an answer from USCIS... I think it takes some time at least for palm beach county

Good Morning Everyone!

 

My combo card is expiring on April 2020.

 

My lawyer is charging me 250 usd each (Atty’s fee)for the renewal. 

 

Is work and travel permit should filed separately? I thought this is combo.

 

Appreciate your answer.

Like it says 'combo' it's one card two benefits! I wonder why your attorney wants to play dirty! If you have the money go ahead and get your stuff done, if not.. Put your foot down and negotiate with him reasonably!💁👍
