My case got transferred in May 2023 to NBC . They sent me an RFE on June 2023 received a response 3 weeks later . In January I placed a Service Request through my lawyer that it was taking longer than their processing times . February 2n case got approved . If that helps

Ah, but the jokes have a half-life of 3 or 4 days! When people give them a "like" or "laugh" upvote, the effect is even stronger.

Your lawyer have to file a motion to terminate the proceedings with the immigration court before you can file I 485 with USCIS . Removal proceedings cases get temporarily closed to free up the docket while your case is being considered. Once your case is approved you have to file a motion before you can apply

Hi Vawa family!
I’m officially a US citizen!!! 🎊 🎉🥳
My interview was today. I was kinda nervous before the interview but it was a lot easier than I thought. My appointment time was at 10:45am and I got called in at 11:50am but was able to check in much earlier though. The interviewer was a lady who was very friendly, bless her. Started with the 6 questions:
Why do some states have more than one representative Name the current president Name three original states How do we stop one branch of government from becoming too powerful Forgot the other 2 questions but they were easy After this I was asked yes/no questions and asked to read “When is flag day” and write “flag day is in June”. She then proceeded to make a few changes and asked me to review before signing. Nothing asked about my ex-spouse or VAWA at all.
All in all the interview lasted no more than 6 min. I was then directed to the downstairs lobby where my green card was taken and I waited for the oath ceremony. The oath ceremony started at 20 mins later. We were maybe 40 people in the room. I’m glad I got to take the same day oath and not have to worry about USCIS anymore. I’m relieved this journey is finally over for good!
FO: Seattle
Now off to applying for a passport!
Thanks to everyone on VisaJourney for your help over the years! A page is finally closing!!😃
For everyone still in the waiting game, don’t worry- your day will come too just like it has for me.

1)Have you tried reaching out to your local congressman to inquire on your behalf ? If not that’s the good place to start . They are really helpful getting you answers or at least you will know where your case stands at this moment .
2) You can you write to VSC placing an out of normal processing times request (Make sure to notarize your signature and copy of G-28 form )
3) If you already tried 2 options above with no luck you can reach out to Ombudsman office to help you with your case .
4) Even if that doesn’t work the last option would be to file writ of mandamus to force their hand to make a decision on your case.
You are not alone in this fight . Good luck !
