It depends.

Did you pay for your I-485? If yes then those are free!

 

If you did not pay for i-485 then

EAD will cost you $410 and AP will cost you &575.

This is my second time to renew, the first one i got it without payment.  But i think i need to pay for this right?

Good morning vawa family. How much is the payment for renewal of combo card under C09 category.  I pray for good news for everyone awaiting approval.

just a quick question, does unemployment benefit count as public assistance in US? 

No, I dont think so.

Please how long will it take USCIS to send back my information/ status back to DMV ?my driver license expire tomorrow.  Have been on it over, the case status says review since then. TIA

Hi everyone.  Please,for those who are in college here, do you ever write a letter of non incarceration? Have been requested to write it before the school can approve my financial aids. I dont have any criminal records,  have not been in jail or any penal institution. Been worried since i got the email. TIA

Pls i need clarification.

 I sent a package of  EAD renewal for my daughter 2months ago, but it got rejected because of fee, i thought renewal of EAD is free because i didnt pay for my own .

Hi everyone.

I need help concerning my college admision.

All my previous school certificates are in my maiden name but right now am bearing my Ex name which I will like to change back to my maiden name in future but now I dont want it to mess up my immigration journey.  What do I need to back up my claim that am still thesame person? Will marrige certificate be enough proof?or do i need to go to court to sworn affidavit? Thank you in advance.

My C09 renewal got approved on 5th but i got the online update this morning. I submitted the application on 13th of October.  Am so happy because my job is at stake, they  usually ask for the real card  every weeks,the Extension renewal notice was not enough for them.

Hello everyone.  My Ex filed for divorce on ground of no fault after few months of holding the paper i later signed it. Since then I dont know anything about the case. Should i be worried or just forget it?

Hi everyone,

 

I wanted to share my journey.

I filed my paperwork in  Dec 2018

prima facia given in Feb 2019

work permit issued June 2019

Approved in 360 Vermont March/April 2020

work permit issued March 2020

additional work permit issued June 2020

485 sent to Local office September 2020

appointment issued December 2020

 

Approval for Green Card December 2020 AT THE APPOINTMENT!!!

 

My attorney went with me to the appointment at USCIS everything was done virtually. The person assigned to my case asked routine questions, then asked for us to put our medical forms in the packet provided. 2 minutes later he came into the room to personally tell us that I had a green card! By the second week of January I had my card.

 

I know my situation was not normal, but you know what... we got this! I’m now struggling to find my purpose, but I really felt like someone needed this. Your time is next!! 
 

love you all💕

 

Congratulations

Yes that is the way to go about it. I recently got approved for financial aid using my Prima Facie but IN MY STATE, the school I wanted to attend  inform me that I will only be considered in state student(for tuition rate) AFTER one year of my I-485 priority date HOWEVER they said I can claim in state domicile based on my spouse if he is a resident of the state. 

Am trying to fill the FASFA form, there is a section where i need to put in our 2019 tax which was jountly filled with my Ex, i was not working then, but we filled together and he claimed my daughter.  Can you help me out what am going to put down on tax return of 2019. Thank you

Hello dear, new member here I just sign up so that I could answer your question. There are Lovely ladies on this forum. Thanks for the uplifting work you all do.

 

For financial aid my dear yes the Prima Facie makes you eligible. For starters you need to file a fafsa form on the Department of Education. Once you answer the question about citizenship select "NO, BUT I AM AN ELIGIBLE NONCITIZEN". Your application will be processed and the DOE will verify your status with USCIS. Don't worry if they say you are not an eligible non citizen. The school you selected on your application will contact you before they finalize your aid package and then you can submit your Prima Facie letter. I say go ahead and apply for financial aid. Plus you get refunded whatever money is left from the aid. 

Thank you for your quick response, God blesd you.

Good evening vawa family. Perhaps is there anyone here who use prima facia as a finamcial aids for school? I wish to start a school program but i dontnknow how prima facia could benefit me.

Wow three months extension ?  I never heard of three months extension, well, we sent for renewal in September,  but we used the old forms and they sent the package back, and we resent it again about six weeks ago, never get receipt yet, my EAD already expired last October. How long it takes you to get the receipt?  Renewal usually takes about two to three months.

Am sorry, i made a mistake, 180 days was written on the recipt. I got the recipt after 2 weeks .

My EAD C09 category expire 5th of next month, i sent my package to renew it early October, i recieved recipt for 3 month Extension but the status still remain fee were waived. How long does it takes this day?

Wow! Good way to start indeed. Am sure my Ex will not release mine and my child own. We file tax together 2019 and he got the first stimulus check for the family then.

Did you get EAD? If yes, when did you file I-765, and when did you get your EAD? 

Am sorry for replying late,  am sommehow busy..

I have C09 from pending AOS with my Ex but i  never work with it , i got it 8month ago.

Hello my People. Do you guys think it's good to change my name back to my maiden name now? There is a space for that in the divorce paper mailed to me by my EX.  Should I ignore it and later do it on my own?. TIA

Hello everyone!

 

Hope you have been doing well while I was away from thinking about immigration for a month....although I have a quick question:

 

If I filed on Sept 25th and received the receipt notice the following week but no prima facie yet, should I be worried? Its been almost 2 months. 

Same point as you are.

 I filled August RFE for Police clearance was sent to them, no Prima facial. But I read about alot of people here who didn't get prima facial and they were approved.
