Did congressman inquiry - Vawa pending since March 2020
I don't know what to do. Look like my case is stuck in a background check. I received the below response.
As a part of a greater eligibility determination, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) conducts background and security checks on applicants and certain petitioners for immigration benefits. These checks are necessary to ensure United States national security and public safety interests. In some cases, the results of these checks require USCIS to perform additional inquiries or consult with other government agencies. When this is necessary, there is often some delay in resolving the checks, and it is difficult to predict when resolution will be completed. Please be assured that this case has not been overlooked. Once all checks are resolved, the I-360 will be adjudicated and your constituent will be notified of the decision.
New Zealand Police check- NVC
Hi team!
We are currently stuck at a standstill at the NVC stage with our New Zealand Police check. New Zealand Police send the Police result directly to the US embacy Consulate and not to the applicant. This is stated on the NVC website (Country guidelines) and also the New Zealand police vetting website.
When uploading appropriate documents, the NVC don’t recognise this process and deny the upload with the same generic note ‘Please refer to NCV website and upload appropriate document’. This seems to be a big issue for a lot of New Zealanders.
We have been rejected 4 times, and our experdite was also rejected. We have tried contacting NVC directly, US Consulate directly, Experditing, making Enquiries, and also speaking to our local senator. This has delayed our process currently by 6 weeks, and we seem to be going in circles.
Any advice would be appreciated! ❤️
Background check: Parking ticket, ordering weed online?
Does anyone have experience of what background check USCIS does? Specifically, with respect to having parking tickets which were promptly paid. Also, can ordering weed online and having it delivered to your apartment be a red flag? I live in a state where weed is legal? Can these two factors affect I485 application. Thanks for your comments

I-130 US citizen for mom in Netherlands
Has anyone randomly been picked out to receive approval earlier than the expected wait time (about a year) without their case being expedited? Does anyone have experience with the embassy in the Netherlands and their wait times after approval from USCIS? Thanks for reading!
