@Rhema1 the notification was on the vawa base I 485. I sent in 485 in May after vawa was approved in april 2022.

@sandranj please I will appreciate your input on this. "We are reconsidering our earlier decision. We sent you a notice that describes how we will process your case"

Thanks. 

Just wait for the notice as said by uscis and keep us updated.

File Aos I-130 I-485 I-765 I-131: 02/11/21

Combo card: 07/29/21

Interview was scheduled: 02/08/22

File VAWA and ask to hold I-485: 02/11/22


I didn’t go to the interview because I was told so. My lawyer said my current is still valid since we requested to hold I-485 in abeyance. There is still no update on my I-485 but I really want to travel back home. My lawyer said it’s alright to travel but I am still to worried. I entered by student visa but stopped school after sent Aos package. My I-94 still shows “D/S”. Does anybody here have a similar situation? Please share your ideas. Thank you!

Sunday = time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

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

THE CLASSY NURSING HOME

 

With their ailing mother needing constant medical supervision, a family decided to bring her to a very expensive and caring nursing home for a day to try it out.

 

The next morning, the nurses bathed her, fed her a tasty breakfast, and set her in a chair at a window overlooking a lovely flower garden.  She seemed OK, but after a while she slowly started to lean over sideways in her chair.  Two attentive nurses immediately rushed up to catch her and straighten her out.

 

Again, she seemed OK, but after a while she started to tilt to the other side.  The nurses rushed back and once more brought her back upright.

 

This went on all morning, with the dedicated nurses making sure that the old woman didn't fall.  That afternoon, the family arrived to see how she was adjusting to her new home.

 

"So, Ma, how is it here?  Are they treating you all right?" they asked.

 

"It's nice enough," she replied, "except they won't let me fart."

:P

Hey guys how do i go about getting my medicals done? how do i know which places uscis accepts? Our i360 got approved weeks back and the i485 was transferred first week of this month. So, i want to go ahead and get medicals done before they request for it but i dont know how to go about that. im currently in texas, austin to be specific.

They went back to the original guidelines on 9/30, so do not get medicals done until they ask for it.

Folks always recommend here to go to interview even if you go alone. You can explain to IO that you are planning to file VAWA. Unauthorized employment and visa over stay is always forgiven for the spouse of US citizen. 

I also traveled to India on advance parole for the first time. So it is safe to travel on AP.

Hey guys, 

From the information gathered here, i asked my attorney to ask the judge to close my removal proceedings so i can go ahead to file with USCIS. My I360 is pending still for a year. This is what it’s showing me now on my case when i look at the immigration court docket. 
 

Can anyone tell me what it means? We still haven’t received any letters from the court yet.

From what I gather the judge probably granted you an admin closure. They're not really supposed to grant a termination without an approved petition. Basically case is still ongoing, jurisdiction over I-485 still rests with the judge, but there won't be any further hearings unless someone moves for a re-calendar.
