Yay! I am sincerely happy for you! Your journey is about to be over! Congratulations! ❤️❤️❤️
 

as for questions about asylum/VAWA, you kind of never know. I’ve asked my lawyer the same question and he stated that it really depends on the IO. Some do and some don’t. 
 

Based on experience of ppl who I know, going with the lawyer always works better. So if you have this opportunity, take it without any doubt.

 

Good luck! 

 

 

I will go with my lawyer yes, but I feel so nervous if the IO start asking vawa questions, can’t afford talking about the abuses again. Everytime I think about abuse I become depressed and my heart rate go up. My counselor advised me to not talk or remember it. Because I was crying every time I had to talk about it (I almost escaped assassination in my marriage).

Totally understandable. And I am very sorry that you’ve had to go through this.
 

Your  lawyer will not let the IO dig into your VAWA like that and ask details about abuse. They might ask bona-fide marriage questions, so be mentally prepared.

 

This is the last hard step. After your interview is over, you won’t have to talk about this again.

Tap into your nervous energy and summon up your inner Ghengis Khan …and imagine this VAWA group as the force behind you.

Hey , after wandering  a lot with questions here, I just received an interview appointment letter for my i485 for august 10. Thanks to all @Stillwinning!!!😊 @Rhema1 @Family . Now need to do my medicals fast , I only have two weeks.

reminder: i360 approved February 2022 after surviving a NOID and 204c fraud from my i130. I was in removal proceedings from my asylum and removal terminated march 2022. Do think I’ll be asked questions about i360 or asylum again? I’m nervous 

Thanks be to God. 

The presence of your lawyer will avoid the IO from asking you these types of questions relating to your vawa. 

But if the IO is too zealous going that way, I think that your lawyer will tap into it and redirect the questions. 

But If over Zealous, just simply say:  "please mam or Sir, my form i-360 has already  been adjudicated, I don't feel comfortable going into it again,...May I kingly see or talk to your supervisor?." 

I doubt 100/100 if after this observation he or she will continue going that path 😀😀😀

But I'm sure that you will be okay. 

May God, through Jesus-chris his son be with you.

Her case number start with RDJ2016…

she was married but applied for vawa no other visa 

I think that a claim by a lawful permanent resident may have been done on her behalf in 2016.

Has she already filed any form I-485?

If no, I guess she is now qualified.

Hey dear family hope you all are doing fine !

can you guys help me out about what this letter means ?

my friend she applied in 2016 for vawa and since there nothing has changed on her case and she got this letter .

The letter is for the I-130 her husband filed for her and it was filed in 2016…because the letter is from NVC it shows your friend was not in the US at that time and would have followed Consular process in her country. That I-130 was approved and sent to NVC…It is a Notice that it will be terminated/ closed for abandonment….which is ok since your friend is no longer in that marriage.
 

BUT , she has a definite problem if her VAWA has been pending since 2016….tel her to go ask for help from Congressman. Something is wrong , way too long for no deferred action and decision on the case. 
 

Also tell her to do a FOIA of her A# file , anyone helping her will want to see a complete record

It is Wednesday, and time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

==================================================

THE RICH MAN, THE YOUNG MAN, & THE APPLES

 

A young man asked an old rich man how he had made his money.

 

The old man fingered his expensive wool vest and said, "Well, son, it was 1932 -- the depths of the Great Depression.  I was down to my last nickel.  I invested that nickel in an apple.  I spent the entire day polishing the apple, and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for 10 cents.

 

"The next morning, I invested those 10 cents in two apples.  I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them at 5 p.m. for 20 cents.  I continued this system for a month, by the end of which I'd accumulated a fortune of $9.80.

 

"After that," the old rich man continued, "I invested the $9.80 into a market stall so I could polish and display a lot more apples.  I began making about $50 a month from then on.

 

"Then my wife's father died and left us two million dollars."

:P

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

If she is still married to that lawful permanent resident or if their marriage was terminated less than two years before she filed her form I-360, I guess she is now qualified to file her Form I-485 if she did not do it before.

Her visas availability has become current because of her lawful permanent resident spouse. 

I May be corrected if I'm wrong.
