Hi fam,

Please I need everyone's input. 

I filed VAWA in Feb 2020 after which I received notice of action and subsequently prima facie (about 3 times). I have also renewed my combo card twice. I then relocated to another state and sent form AR11 to USCIS accordingly (Vermont). In July 2022, I received RFE which I responded to a week later than deadline day because my attorney failed to inform me early enough. USCIS acknowledged receipt of the documents and said they will continue working on my case. In March this year, I received 3 mails from USCIS Lees Summit office - 2 Notices of Action for the combo card I already have which is expiring next year and notice of action for the VAWA I filed since Feb 2020 for which I already received confirmation for but this time the received date stated in the letter was August 2020. Why from Lees Summit Office MO instead of Vermont? Does anyone have an idea of what could be going on? Also, is there a way I could nudge them on my case? I am thinking of using congress person again (I did before) or shall I send same RFE documents again just to see if someone touches my file? @balo101 @Demise @sandranj

What does VAWA letter say? 

You are already out of processing time. I would say reach out to your congressperson for help. They should be able to get you an update.

Inquire via a congressman.

Only thing I could think of would ironically be an approval because the I-485 gets moved from Nebraska or Vermont to National Benefits Center once it's able to be scheduled for further processing (i.e. when the I-360 is approved), which then forwards it further to a local field office. Still, I don't want to get your hopes up here.

Yeah, just as @Demise said, congressional inquiry is the best option for now. It will enable you to get a general view about your case.

You're probably approved, once that happens the case moves to the NBC, then the local office. Contact your congressperson to inquire on your behalf, Just give your congressperson your I-360 receipt number and ask him to inquire on your behalf.

READING THE WILL

 

Abraham had died.  His lawyer was standing before the family to read Abraham's Last Will and Testament aloud.

 

"To my dear wife Esther, I leave the house, 50 acres of land, and 1 million dollars."

"To my son Barry, I leave my big Lexus and the Jaguar."

"To my daughter Suzy, I leave my yacht and $250,000."

"And to my brother-in-law Hymie, whom I promised to mention in my will:  "Hello there, Hymie."

This will also be interesting.

Thank you so much. This is so helpful. @sandranj - are there anything else I should include in the application? Hoping for your advice.

[2020filer 74]

Hi all - just checking in here  Hope everyone is doing well and we got a lot more approvals since I last wrote here! I am still waiting on any status change myself. As a reminder, I got approval notice Sept 2022 (precisely 24 months after the file date) and now waiting on the next steps. However I got a few weird status changes "I130 was transferred to a new jurisdiction... why??" and "correspondence was received on my I360 already after I got approval". No changes on my I485. 

 

Hope to hear about my i485 soon! Can't wait to not renew my advanced parole haha

I know it takes a while after submitting the medical. How long did it take for you to get an approval?

Hey question, anyone know how long it takes Nebraska Service Center (before you ask - that's where new VAWA I-360, I-485, I-765, I-131, I-864W, etc. go to) to actually intake the forms?

 

My AOS package (I-485, I-765, I-131, I-864w, G-1450) arrived June 21st, and so far radio silence (no receipts, no rejection, credit card hadn't been charged yet).

 

Yeah I know, hurry up and wait, I'm just antsy after years of dealing with immigration nonsense.

Hi Demise. Did you hear from them by any chance? They have received my package on June 14th and still nothing 😕

Nothing, messaged my senator yesterday to have them follow up.

Thanks for your response. I’ll let you know if I hear anything. Hopefully we will get our receipts soon 🤞

Hi

It's mostly depends on your field office.

Some take more longer to adjudicate your form I-485 than others.

The average time I have seen so far after receiving your medical is 30 days. But to be more relaxed, always give them 60 days.

Mine took less than 2 weeks after receiving my medical.
