Waiting, waiting, waiting. You would think USCIS would grant faster timeline for decisions for VAWA applicants since their abvsers are current on US soil and can easily access them. Weird system but each their own lol. I knew about the wait time before I applied but damn… it gets hard sometimes and then the anxiety about if you’ll get approved or not gets to your head especially considering the current circumstances with so and so’s administration lol!!! NERVOUS! ANXIOUS!!!! lol

Greetings, blessings to all, I hope you are well and that your process goes hand in hand with God. I wanted to ask if any of you have had your i485 date updated. I mean, for me, since last year it told me that it is actively reviewing and today it tells me the same message but with an updated date. Could you tell me if it means that it is close to approval or what it would be, and if it is close to approval, how many days or months did it take for it to be approved? Thank you very much in advance.
saludos bendiciones a todos espero que se encuentren bien y que su proceso vaya de la mano de Dios🙏🏽queria preguntarle si a alguien de ustedes se le ah actualizado la fecha del i485 osea a mi desde el año pasado me decia revisando activamente y hoy me dice el mismo mensaje pero con fecha actulizada podrian decirme si significa que esta proximo a aprobar o que seria y si es proximo a aprobacion cuantos dias o meses les tardo para que lo aprobaran muchas gracias de ante mano

Notices
Hey all! I submitted my VAWA case Sept. 2022 but all I received was that my fees were waived and PF but nothing else since then.. I am now 1000 days in the process, am I supposed to received another notice or send something else out besides the Fees were waived notice?
I also saw they are approving January 2022 submissions, does that mean if I submitted mine September 2022 does that mean I am 8/9 months away?

oh Brody!! (I-765 notice)
on July 5th, after the fireworks, I was apparently suppose to receive an update on my EAD via mail notice.
my husband and I were out for a day of shopping and sometime to ourselves.
when we arrived back home, there was a big healthy handsome half boxer/pug who sought refuge under our awning from the hot sun that day! the poor boy was spooked during all of the fireworks the night before and ran from home.
although I was so happy to have helped the doggo, and we did get him back to his owner, when I got a update this morning on my USCIS account, it showed the notice was returned, marked could not be delivered. handsome Brody under our awning scared the postman away 😭😭😭😭😭

I-130 process timeline
Hi guys, My husband filed an I-130 petition for me on June 16, 2024. It's now been over a year with no updates, and the receipt number starts with #IOE. The case is being processed at the #VermontServiceCenter. I'm wondering if anyone else is in a similar situation or has recently received updates after a long wait? We haven't heard anything, and I'm feeling a bit lost on what to do next. Any insights into typical timelines, or recent progress stories from similar cases would be incredibly helpful! Also, if you have advice on how to inquire about the case status effectively, please share.
Thanks and good luck to everyone waiting..

This is a simplified version as I’m standing on a train heading back home 😂 interview went well. Make sure you photocopy original divorce decree documents, I brought the originals and they seems mad at me ☹️ but they were honestly fine, the person doing the interview was lovely and actually had a sense of humour.
Questions asked:
How did you meet?
How was the wedding?
Have you met her family?
How many times and what was your longest stay in the US?
Do you plan on visiting Israel or Palestine?
This is very mentally challenging and still doesn’t feel real but don’t give up no matter how hard it gets.
