Thanks for the clarification Bob and yes withholding them was emotionally abusive because I could not even work and provide for myself and he used this to scare me a lot.

But no I have not heard anything since I filled, my i130 filled by my ex was approved about a year prior to filling my VAWA I don't know if this helps in any way.

I do enter my reciept number online and it's just on INTIAL REVIEW, how would I know if it is touched?

Thanks for your input but just to clarify, I was abused both physically and mentally and ends up living in a shelter for a while so that was just a glimpse into my case, I did not just want to get into the rest of it since it's a difficult topic but trust me, I have a VAWA case. Also I have not be asked for RFE so that's why I wanted to know if thats normal..

Hey guys,

Am new here and it's nice to among people in the same boat as I am. I filled my VAWA in 12-9-2010 after my ex who was a PR refused to file Citizenship in order to adjust my status after being married over 4year. He had filled my 130 ONLY which was approved in October 2009 so last year after my priority date became current, I filled i360, i485 and EAD all together. February I received my EAD but since then u haven't heard from USCIS.

My case is obviously outside the 5month time frame. I would like to take an offer to study abroad that my new college has offered me but I can't leave the country so I have two questions, can I request an expedite in the VAWA due to school and two, how long will it take after approving my VAWA to schedule an i485 interview??

Finally I know that AOS requires medical exams but I have never done one as I came here on a B1 and got married, if I need one, at what point in the process will I be asked to do it?

I really appreciate your inputs
