Hi Everyone,
 
I have been a subtle silent member of this group, If ask how I came across this group, won’t have a specific answer. Googling every concern of mine online lead me to this group as regarding my Vawa case
 
File May 18, 2018
Got 1.5 PF
February 25, 2020: we order your new card status update on my Vawa application 
March 12, 2020 case approve for Vawa
July I received another approval for the second C31 card EAD
after I long wait, I decided to follow one suggestion provided here on how to inquire about my case through the congresswoman office representing my constituent. I was assigned a very nice case officer 👮‍♀️. This is officer really help me out, he responded to everyone of my request. I just kept going to him every month or every other month requesting for him to make enquires regarding my case.
The first inquire was submitted somewhere April 2021 and right after the inquiry an update was made to my case: fingerprint applied to my case by May 25th.
March 8th 2022 I made another inquiry 
and by April 07, I got update that they sent request for Medical since on the 3rd of March 2022. Luckily enough they include a copy for me and the congresswoman office case officer send me the update including the copy and I forwarded it to my attorney and send me address for Immigration Doctors to go carry out medical. As God will have it, I already had my COVID19 shut both. 
April 20th medicals dropped off at the Brooklyn office and 
May 2nd: I-485: Néw Card is Being Produced 
It is a long story, but God did it after almost 4yrs.
Please, in your prayers today, help me thank God. 
 
Thanks to all the admin members for all the resources you all provide here.
 
God bless you all.
 
Hang on there, you are next in line!

Sunday!  Time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke, guaranteed* to evoke approvals and messages of positive progress, especially if upvoted on VJ:
================================================
THE ESCAPE OF THE CATERPILLARS
 
Two caterpillars were escaping a spider.  They climbed up a branch and got to the edge, but then realized that they were trapped.
 
"Hold on tight!" said the first caterpillar, and he quickly chewed through the branch.
 
It snapped and they began to fall, but he grabbed two protruding twigs and used them to steer the branch through the air with grace and finesse.
 
"That's amazing!" said the second caterpillar.  "How did you manage to do that?"
 
The first caterpillar scoffed, "Am I the only one in the entire forest who knows how to drive a stick?"
 

Hello friends,
I want to share my story. Some of you old folks may remember me from 2017. Filed Vawa in Jan 2017 by myself. I was begging to the lawers to help me, I was ready to give them money for just a hope, but no one took my case, (NY) because I had not enough proof for being together with my exhusband. I filed by myself in January 2017 and after 4,5 years got approved. All I want to say is don't lose hope. If I got approved with my weak case, everyone can.  Timeline: 
January 2017 - Sent Vawa.
May 2019 - Sent 485/765 (got EAD and started living life) 
June 2021 - Vawa approved.
September 2021 - Fingerprints 
April 2022 - Medicals drop off (have only 1 dose of Covid Vaccine) 
April 14, 2022 - Green Card Approved. 
Don't lose hope. 

Update on my interview.
I went this morning. My interviewer asked me to go through my I-485 and we went through it. She took my Medical and ask me to file I-864W (Affidavit for family-based immigrants to show that they have adequate means of financial support and are not likely to become a public charge)I filed it. And told me they will send me their decision via Mail. I will let you know once I heard back from them. My filling date was
November 2017
I-360 approval September 2019
Interview April 22/2022
 
May God be with you all. Thank you very much for your support. This Forum meant a lot for me on this process. 
 
 

It is Wednesday, and therefore time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke*:
   *worth upvotes for greatest success
=============================
NO NEED FOR A COMPASS
 
The fat man and his wife were returning to their seats in the theater after the intermission.  "Did I step on your toes as I went out?" he asked a man at the end of the row.
 
"You did," replied the other man grimly, expecting an apology.
 
The fat man turned to his wife.  "All right, Mary," he said, "this is our row!"
 

Hey Everyone, here to share the power of prayer. Yesterday I was asking if anyone knew of any solutions because my job wouldn’t accept my extension and @balo101 tried to help (thank you) as a result yesterday was my last day at work and I am terminated today. I prayed last night, and begged God to have mercy on me after all I’ve been through before going to bed, and just a while ago I get a notification that new card is being produced for my I-485!!!!!
I am so grateful and will pray for everyone in this community to hear good news soon 🌸

It is Sunday -- time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke (guaranteed, if correlation = causation, to evoke approvals and positive case progress, especially when UPVOTED ON VJ).
 
In honor of the religious holidays, here is what we think is the very first joke ever published here by us.  Some of our colleagues here have never seen it, and those who have might enjoy it again:
====================================
SQUIRREL INFESTATION!
 
The Presbyterian church called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrel infestation.  After much prayer and consideration, they concluded that the squirrels were predestined to be there, and that they should not interfere with God's will.
 
At the Baptist church, the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistry.  The deacons met and decided to put a water-slide in the baptistry and let the squirrels drown themselves.  The squirrels liked the slide and, unfortunately, knew instinctively how to swim, so twice as many squirrels showed up the next week.
 
The Lutheran church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creatures, so they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist church.  Two weeks later, the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down their water-slide.
 
The Episcopalians tried a much more unique path.  They set out pans of whiskey around their church in an effort to kill the squirrels with alcohol poisoning.  They sadly learned how much damage a band of drunk squirrels can do.
 
But the Catholic church came up with a more creative strategy -- they baptized all the squirrels and made them members of the church.  Now they see them only at Christmas and Easter.
 
Not much was heard from the Jewish synagogue.  They took the first squirrel and circumcised him.  They haven't seen a squirrel since.
 

Approval notice update the next day after Card production notice update. 
I-360 received on feburary 25th 2020

First of all thanks to everyone for big support you are giving here to everyone in down times. Whenever I used to feel down and frustrated  I would come here to read posts and post my timeline to talk to you guys.

But my God, through his son  JESUS Christ of Nazareth, gave to me his right decision. To his name alone be All the Glory, Magesty and praises for everlasting to everlasting..

Wednesday -- time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke*:

=========================================
THE INTERROGATION
 
A weary, sweating policeman emerged from the inner interrogation room of the station.
 
"Well, did you give that criminal the third degree?" asked the captain.
 
"Yeah," was the tired reply.  "Six of us kept screaming and shouting and badgering him with questions for over four hours."
 
"And what did you get out of him?" asked the captain eagerly.
 
"Nothing," said the policeman disgustedly.  "All he did was doze off and from time to time murmur, 'Yes, dear.  You're right, dear.'"
 

Hey family. Here’s my timeline again. FO is queens Ny 
vawa approved July 2021
congressman request made in Jan 2022
Got a reply March 20 from them with attached rfe for medicals in email.

No update at all on the app or the website about rfe sent or received. Please if anyone in this situation could shed some light. All help appreciated.

Yee-HAAAAA!

Hey everybody! I finally received my green card in hand today! I thought the day would never come but it did. My field office is NY and my i-360 was approved exactly one year ago. Hang in there everybody!

Hello all, I want to share good news that my I-360 has been officially approved.
 
I have been a long time lurker and just most recently started to participate in this thread. Thank you all so much for the motivation, insights, and empathy you have shown to each other. ❤️
 
It’s a long dragging journey, and I am glad I did not lose hope. I am wishing the best for the rest of you on here as well.

================================================
THE MISSING ANGEL
 
A man walking down the street suddenly heard a tiny voice above him, saying, "If you take one more step, a brick will land on your head and kill you."
 
Surprised, the man stopped just as a huge brick crashed down right in front of him.
 
Stunned, he continued on his way, and after a few minutes he heard the voice again.  "Stop!  Don't cross the road.  If you do, the next vehicle will run you over!
 
The man froze just before he was hit by a speeding car.
 
The man gave a sigh of relief and said to the air, "Who ARE you?"
 
"I am your guardian angel!" answered the voice joyfully.
 
"REALLY?!" said the man in sudden anger.  "Then where the heck were you when I got MARRIED?"
 

Your time will come.  Hang in there.

FIVE "BOSS" JOKES
 
The office manager looked toward his assistant, who was playing on his phone.  "Mr. Bright," he said, "I'd like to compliment you on your work -- but when are you going to do any?"
 
"You can't help admiring our boss."
"Why is that?"
"If you don't... you're fired!"
 
"Why did Harold leave his job?"
"Illness."
"Anything serious?"
"Yes -- the boss got sick of him."
 
Angry boss (to office boy):  You're late again this morning!
Office boy:  I overslept.
Boss:  You mean you sleep at home, too?!
 
Boss (to department head):  How many people work in your office?
Department head:  About half of them, sir.
 

Finally approved, the approval notice was sent❣️🙏
