Thank you Stillwinning. Truth very frustrating. My congressman got response from USCIS that my case was pending background check,that was in October, contacted a Senior's office this year,no response yet.

Good day all, I have been silent since there is no update on my VAWA I-360 case.  But I need advise at this point. RFE was received in April and response sent and it was  received by Vermont on June 29, 2020.
Third Prima Facies was issues in September to expire early February 2021. I have
asked my House of Representative member find out for me for what is going on,as of October the response he got was security check. My case is September 2018. Past processing time.
How else can I find out what is actually going on with this case? Kindly  advise.
Thank you.

Rhetorical question:  Who defines "normal"?
You don't know what's going on behind the scenes.  "Men (women) everywhere lead lives of quiet desperation."
 
Every time you feel sad or overwhelmed, look yourself in the eye (in the mirror) and say, "This too shall pass."  Do it several times, with increasing conviction.  It's guaranteed that you'll feel better afterwards.
 
Back when the consulate was playing its infernal games with Mrs. T-B.-to-be's visa, I found that violent physical exercise helped.
 
A great many members here have found solace and strength in their religious faith and conviction.
 
One day, you'll look back on this time with a sense of peace and relief, because it WILL pass.
 
Members here will surely reach out to you by Personal Message.  You hang in there!  And good to hear of another July birthday.  

This is not the time to start imagining things or making wild speculations..just put all your energy into giving the closure they are requesting. Relax don't be scared gather what you can..I had to take a trip back to where we used to live to get neighbors who knew us, and landlord to write. Your own affidavit is very pertinent as well. Don't forget prayer changes things..do all you can and leave the rest to GOD!🙏 you will WIN!

Wow! So happy for you! Congratulations on your approval! It’s good to see Aug approvals. September 2018 filer here.

Hello fam,
 
So this was my interview experience. I got there and checked in 2 hours ahead on my time to be there.
Waited want about 30 minutes then the officer called me in and did the swearing in.
I don't even know how and where to start but it wasn't a typical vawa interview and not friendly as I wished.
We went thru all the list addresses I lived. Verified my details and now said that whatever documents I have to support my case I can present them. At that point I gave her the documents listed on the Call In/Interview sheet.
Regardless of that she asked about my ex, how me met and made me narrate from the day we met up till date. At a point my words couldn't flow because it was like scratching old scars into new wounds when I got to the abusive part. But nevertheless I got myself together and continued and until we came up to the yes/no questions which was the breathing point for me.
In all it took over 2 hours and at the end waited for her to make copies of literally everything I had when I applied initially ( tax returns, passport, new medical I did, EAD card and took the originals of some pictures left of myself and my spouse, lease agreement joint bank statements.......etc)
 
Right before I went thru TSA at the airport flying back to school on Tx. a couple minutes ago I got a notification : Interview was completed and case must be reviewed.
 
At this point I don't know what's next or what final outcome will be because from what I understand she wasn't supposed to go near the my abuse but I guess at her discretion she surely did. I remember asking her before I left which case number this interview was for and she responded by reading out the case EAC......... my vawa 485.
Again I asked does it mean that my 360 was approved and her response that I can check that online or set up an info pass to find.
She wasn't friendly or helpful at all but in all I'm still grateful to God that at least someone somewhere has seen or touched my case finally in 3 years.
And the final outcome is surely in HIS HANDS 🙌🙏.
 
God bless everyone on here going thru this process. It's not over until it's over 😊🙏🙏
And sorry for this long post.

Hi dear, I have to say that you even had more documents than I did..hence my RFE for shared residence and good faith marriage at some point in my journey! The problem is who is handling your case..some are easier to convince than others..sometimes you have more than enough proofs but if faced with an overzealous officer who wants to practice his or her skills with you..it may be tough! I pray a humane officer is in charge of your case and will be satisfied with your evidence which I think is ok..not a lot, but can serve the purpose. I believe my affidavit..very detailed..helped me explain more why I didn't have more evidence. So prepare to write if you are sure you can not provide further evidence. Other than that you should be fine!🙏😊

Thank you my dear VJ friend😍💝 I appreciate you. I pray God works wonders on your behalf! Your day is coming. Hardly my final destination..I'm looking forward to massive things ahead.😊🙌👍 Godbless you abundantly!🙏

Here you go dear..just got the notification rn.🙌😊🇺🇸

Hi guys,I did my interview earlier today. It was for 7:30 AM. I was called in around 8:35 AM or so. The lady that interviewed me was kinda mean or I would say overly professional and doing too much. She started asking me about my marriage... she was asking me specific dates of what and where my ex husband and I visited.. I answered her and she kept going deeper and then it started to irritate me and I told her excuse me Ma'am I am here for a VAWA- I485 interview and I don't want to be reminded about my abuse and I am not sure of so many dates anymore...It is almost three years. Then she was like she knows but my I130 was denied, I didn't come in for an interview with my then husband. So, I told her I did and I spoke with an officer who held on to my I485 and all that.. Then she said oh it doesn't say so in my file.. she Asked where I did the interview?I told her.. she asked me so many annoying questions.. damn! She moved on to the I485 questions after I cleared that my I130 wasn't denied, my case just went from that to VAWA..I answered all the yes and no. Asked if I was divorced now, I said yes, gave her my decree, asked for my medicals, and asked if I wanted to add anything else... asked where I worked, address, and updated my name because I changed my name back to my maiden name after divorce..
 
 
She handed me a letter that my case is under review, she will let me know if she will be needing anything else in the mail and if she didn't, I will be getting my green card. At that point I was like whatever in my mind. But told her thanks and have a nice day. LOL. I was not expecting any reply or approval anytime soon. I felt she will delay it for some reasons, and I didn't want to be bothered at all today... I have been having a bad week. I just wanted to go on with my day like nothing happened. I was still curious though.. tried to check the case tracker few times but it has been acting up. It is not refreshing. Just tried it few minutes back before writing this and I saw "new card being produced" I am so so happy right now. Finally over!!!!!. I am very thankful to God. I am in LA, and its 3:10Pm right now... I don't know when exactly my case was updated but I left their office around 9:20 AM or so. I want to give @Stillwinning!!!😊 a special shout out for all her support and I pray you get your date soon 😘. And thanks to @sandra and everyone that has shared their journey with us. It has helped me so much. Thank you guys! 🙌🏽 God bless all of you. And I pray for good news for everyone waiting for their approvals. 

Congrats :-) they took 5 months to approve your I765. That is a long time 

Can I take you out of the lonely heart club?😊 it doesn't sound like a great place to be..God loves you and will give you double for your troubles! Everything you've lost will be restored AMEN!🙏 don't worry about the length of time it will take as long as it happens ok? Just believe, be strong and be patient..God will come through! It could be 2020 it could be 2021..keep holding on!👍

The Lord will heal you and keep you safe. You will come out of those procedures stronger. It is well with you in Jesus name. Amen

Hey, 
 
 
My I-360 application has been finally approved ! I had enough courage to finally apply for VAWA after coming across this thread. I did not have much or  no one beside my friend to talk to but reading this thread  helped me a lot. I wanted to thank everybody including our expert Sandra ! I know its just a baby step there is still alot ahead of me . When I got the update two days ago I did not know what to do. It was like a daydream. Thank GOD! I filled my application without a lawyer (I-360,I-485,I-765). How do you find out the priority  date for the i-485 application? oh I am an April 2018 filer..

The GC does not have any conditions and yes it is 10yrs !! 

I finally received my greencard yesterday!!!!
 
Don't give up guys !!!!
