RFE
good morning everyone, I was married and my case denied after my husband passed away. I managed to file for VAWA, And I received RFE for medical last month which I responded to pretty fast. but my concern is that, All the RFE I was seeing on here was for the 1360 and o got one for 1485 and not 1360. should l be worried or be good?

and have you ever violated the terms as put No
but the answer is yes because my husband overstay his visa should I let uscis office know before they ask on the interview or just wait until they ask is there anything you will like to change? were having interview soon
Concurrent Filing?
Hello all,
I pretty much needed some clarification as I was a bit confused. Im a US citizen, I submitted forms I-130 & I-130A back in August 2024 on behalf of my wife who is in our home country and we’re still waiting for a response. I was looking at the form I-485 and was wondering if I can file it now even though she’s not in the USA or is that to be done after she gets approved and gets a visa.
December 2021 Vawa timeline Journey!
Hey Fam, i thought I would post my Vawa Journey Timeline for anyone who wants to reference. It helped me a lot while i was waiting to see other people's timeline and kind of estimate.. but each case is different and also i think it all depends which officer has your file. 😭.
TIME IS A LOYAL SERVANT OF GOD. It will happen for you too. 🙏🏾

Most Awaited i130 approval
The Most Awaited Post 💌
After months of stress, delays, and uncertainty — we finally got approved! 🙏
Here’s our rollercoaster journey:
Filed I-130 on 16th August 2023.
Got denied on 31st January 2024 due to an issue with the beneficiary's divorce decree (translation was not properly done).
Filed I-290B (Motion to Reopen) on 26th February 2024.
With no clarity, we got anxious and on 23rd March, filed a new I-130, just in case.
But just three days later, on 26th March 2024, a miracle happened — we got a notification that action was taken on our I-290B.
It was approved! 🎉 We even received the approval letter by mail, although online it still shows "in processing."
Then came another surprise — on 6th June 2025, USCIS asked for biometrics of the petitioner, which is quite rare.
Originally scheduled for 26th June, we managed to prepone it to 12th June using a military expedite request.
On 19th June, we raised a service request online — just got an SRN, no emails, no updates.
On 1st July, my husband called USCIS. The officer said, “You’ll hear something soon. You have multiple files, so it might take longer. But rest assured, it’s in process.”
We decided not to withdraw anything, just waited…
Then came 3rd July 2025 —
A notification popped up that literally took our breath away…
WE GOT APPROVED. 🥹❤️
After all the pain, confusion, patience, and prayers — we made it.
For anyone still waiting — don’t lose hope. Keep pushing, keep praying. ✨
This journey tested us, but it also made us stronger.
I give all credit to my husband who was patient through out the process and I'm able to post this and share my experience...❤️❣️
