Hi @sandra, my GC card with wrong a Gender on it,  am female, but the gender on the card on the was male. My attorney returned the card with letter and supporting documents immediately and it almost a month. I got an update that they have received the card and the letter. Do you have an idea of the time frame to for uscis to fix typography error from their side.

note: all my EAD has female gender on it. I don’t who told them am changing gender, anyways that’s on the light side of it.

I need to know the time frame so as to be able to purchase my flight tickets to travel overseas.

I will be waiting for your reply.

thanks

Since May2021 it was updated with fingerprints been applied. Also I contacted my congressman  that was after they reach to them that the case got updated with fingerprints applied. The last update from the congressman’s office was that it is at it’s completion of extensive background checks. This is driving me crazy.

Why do they ask info of residence? Is it for in-state tuition? Is it for financial aid? If for financial aid, you qualify to submit FAFSA form if you have "Prima Facie" letter or if I-360 is approved: https://studentaid.gov/understand-aid/eligibility/requirements/non-us-citizens

https://ifap.ed.gov/sites/default/files/attachments/dpcletters/GEN1007.pdf

Hi HRQX

thanks so much for this piece of important information. I specifically login to this forum today to ask question on FAFSA and this answer all my question. Mostly important I have email of personnel to contact with regards to my student aid that I applied for.. I did thoroughly read through the six pages letter. Information indeed is powerful.

I just can’t thank you enough, God bless you.

To everyone that keep contributing great information to this forum, may God keep you all safe. As we witness the most uncertain times in human history.

Peace!

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.

Had you gone there with an attorney she won’t have ask you questions that would let you talk about the abuse. Some officers In uscis God have mercy on them.

You are a winner already my dear.

Not sure what's going on now..but last time I checked, EAD was needed. But I've heard that everyone can get DL now in N.Y....not sure the requirements for that..you could give it a go..💁

You can DL in New York if you are undocumented or depending document. You need your international passport, if expired not more than 1yr. If you have international DL from your country. Prove of residency.

Uscis is not obligated to issue RFE anymore, it’s discretionary now .Tell your attorney that she/he should read more often about  the U.S Immigration  Laws.

You mean uscis is not issuing rfe anymore, why the. Are some of us issued a rfe.

could you explain more or provide where to read about it

thanks

Hi

@sandranj
I received a rfe for additional evidence with regards to the place of residence with my abuser of a husband. Now the first place we live which was NJ we had shared documents, but when started abusing me he move us to another state just to isolate me from anyone I have come to know. The second place we had not shard documents he never included me in the lease and at that time I had not documents in the new state to obtain state ID’s. We only live together for few months before the abuse got out hand and I have to look for a way to get out. Please how do I explain this situation to the uscis. I got the rfe a week ago

kindly reply anyone with similar situation.

thanks

I had the RFE of shared residence. Simply get the documents you are in possession of, whatever you don't have explain away in a very detailed affidavit! You may get a statement from the landlord and neighbors, also friends and family..they can attest you live/lived with your abuser! Use this opportunity to explain your entire situation, I believe you will make it. Have no fear whatsoever!👍

Amen

Thanks so much

Did you submit form l485 for your son?he is your derivative but if he is in the U.S  you must file form l485 for him as well.If you submitted the AOS for your son probably they are asking some document that your attorney didn’t submit but if your attorney didn’t file form l485 for your child then you should file now.

I have the exact same PD 05/18/2018. My second Prima Facie expires on 12/15/2019 which is approximately 3.5weeks from now. No RFE so far and not praying for one though 😆😊. I applied for EAD renewal to NBC instead of vermont and its been 6.5 months with no updates (EAD C09 processing time at NBC now is 5 to 7 months. So i am patiently waiting). I am also waiting for either another Prima Facie or Vawa approval before 12/15/2019. Will keep you all updated. This forum has really opened my mind to a lot of things. No one can pay for all the knowledge that we have gained in here. Its priceless. Thank you all.  And good luck in the struggle.
