so I would like to know as some of you know I have already approved VAWA and because of everything going and I’m in removal process as we tried to terminate/ Dismiss the case but when I was in the master hearing it got complicated and the judge did not rule on the termination because DHS did not agree to do so.
my question is :

RFE-General Eligibility and Inadmissibility Grounds
hi all,
We received this RFE after our interview regarding I-485 questions 62-68 General Eligibility and Inadmissibility Grounds. We are confused if this is filled out with the beneficiary information or petitioner information.
62. What is the size of your houschold?
63. Indicate your annual household income:
[ ] S0-$27,000
[ 1 S27001-$52,000
［］$$2,001-$85,000
[ 1 585,001-$141,000
( JOver $141,000
64. Identify the total value of your houschold assets:
［ ］S0-$18,400
[ J $18,001-$136,000
［］S136,001-S321,400
〔］S321,401-$707,100
( J Over $707,100
65. Identify the total value of your houschold liabilities (including both secured and unsecured liabilities)
[ ]S0
( ] S1-$10,100
［］$10,101-$57,700
[ ] $57,701 - $186,800
( 10ver $186,8001
66. What is the highest degree or level of school you have completed?
Second question, the initial application was sent in 2024 - is the RFE responses looking for answers from 2024 or now (2026)? thanks so much!

I-140 Approved Online but No Approval Notice Need Advice
Hi everyone,
My priority date has recently become current, and I am preparing to file my Form I-485 (Adjustment of Status).
However, I am facing an issue. I do not have a copy of my I-140 approval notice. When I check my case status on the USCIS website, it clearly shows that my I-140 is approved, but neither I nor my employer has the official approval notice.
According to my lawyer, the approval notice is not required since the case is already approved, and we can proceed with filing the I-485.
I just wanted to ask:
Has anyone filed I-485 without having the I-140 approval notice?
Is it safe to proceed this way, or should I try to obtain a copy before filing?
I would really appreciate your guidance and experiences.
Thank you!

i filed my citizenship in January 2025 with pending i-751.
the scheduled my interview for August but they cancelled it 3 weeks before the interview date. i didnt cancel. they did. it was a coincidence that i had an overseas trip back then so it was okay tha they cancelled. anyway, a week after they cancelled my interview, i got a notice that they approved my i-751 and a card had been mailed.
fast forward to today, March 2026, i still havent been rescheduled. i made an inquiry since it is already outaide of normal processing time but i got a useless answer saying nothing is pending at this time and that processing times differ on a case by case basis, that they will let me know if they need anything. anybody knows what is going on? anybody with similar situation?
