EB1A approval
My timeline dated back to 2021 when I submitted my EB2-NIW ROW. It was denied and subsequently submitted another essentially the same EB2-NIW, which was approved. However, the priority date at the time would not become current before hitting the 6 year limit of my H1B (I am a researcher in science and technology). Other visas were not an option for me. I took a financial gamble by porting to EB1 and here I am.
These last 5 years Lawfully and members kept me updated and my hopes high. I wish everyone the best of luck!

Any VAWA approval from February, 2022?
Greetings everyone, I hope you are doing well.
I’m checking to see if anyone who filed a VAWA petition around February 2022 or any others, has received any updates or approval yet. Mine is still pending, and I’m getting a bit anxious with the long wait.
If you filed around the same time and have received a decision (approval, RFE, etc.), please share your timeline or any updates. It would be really helpful for those of us still waiting.
Thank you and best wishes to everyone going through this process!

I can’t wait till they give a decision
all this waiting is just crazy.. this is the second case bc the first one we had since 2022.. was denied the 485 only due to forgetting a waiver 601 or smth like that :( while all the other forms had approvals, including I-130😒 but then had to restart it all over bc of one simple mistake. paid even more money this time and this time the GC is needed urgently due to college reasons. I just wish USCIS could hurry

Hi everyone! 👋
I received my I-140 approval on May 14, 2025 ✅
I had already filed my I-485 on February 23, 2024 🗓️
On June 2, 2025, I got an RFE for the medical report , which was sent and received by USCIS on June 13, 2025
Based on your experience, when should I expect approval for my I-485?
I’d really appreciate hearing your timelines or any similar cases 🙏

How long have you been waiting for VAWA approval? 48 months pending need advice
Hi everyone, I wanted to ask how long others have been waiting for their VAWA approval and what your timelines look like.
Here's my situation: •
I filed my VAWA (I-360)
petition on August 16, 2021. • The last update I had was a request for evidence on good moral character / criminal background. I provided my fingerprints and FBI background check, and they issued me a prima facie determination. • Since then, my prima facie has been renewed, and I am now on my fourth prima facie (from May 21 until November 15 this year). • My VAWA case status is still showing "Case is Pending."
In addition: • My I-485 adjustment of status application was filed before VAWA, back in 2019, based on marriage. •
My I-485 was stuck in
"Ready for Interview" status from September 2021 until May 2025 (I didn't attend the interview because of the VAWA process). • Then on May 21, 2025, my I-485 status changed to "Case was transferred to a new jurisdiction."
I submitted an inquiry to USCIS 8 days ago, but haven't heard back yet.
It's been 48 months since my VAWA filing, and I'm honestly frustrated and unsure what's happening.
Has anyone experienced this type of delay? • How long did your VAWA case take? • Did you get any helpful updates after this long? • How did your I-485 and VAWA processing work together?
Any insights would really help, thank you!
