remarried after K1 and VAWA, can I adjust with new marriage?

I entered the U.S. on a K-1 visa, married my petitioner within the required 90 days, and filed for adjustment of status. Before my green card was approved, we divorced after about two years of marriage, and I later filed a VAWA self-petition. A few years after that, I met someone else and remarried. My VAWA case is still pending, and I’m unsure of my options. Specifically, can I withdraw my VAWA petition and instead adjust status through my current marriage? I’ve been feeling stuck in a legal gray area and would appreciate guidance or insight from anyone.

it took two years

The end of my Journey

I passed my interview today. It started with the civics test, followed by the reading and writing test. After that, the officer asked questions from my application. The civics questions I was asked were: What is an amendment? For how many years do we elect a U.S. Representative? What do we show loyalty to when we say the Pledge of Allegiance? Who lived in America before the Europeans arrived? When do we celebrate Independence Day? Name two national U.S. holidays. At the end of the interview, I was asked whether I had brought two biometric photos. I said I hadn’t, so the officer told me my case would be placed on hold. However, they said that if I brought the photos later the same day, they would submit the approval. I brought the photos within two hours, and my application was approved. My case status has now changed to “waiting for the oath ceremony.” I wish everyone the best of luck.

really fast and easy!

Grateful to finally be able to say this: our immigration journey is complete. It wasn’t fast or easy, but it was worth every form, every wait, and every bit of patience. Feeling proud, relieved, and excited for what’s next. 🇺🇸✨

AP approved today

Finally…after over a year. To those waiting on the approval of AP with filing date between Oct-Dec 2024, hang in there. The decision is around the corner. Best luck

API updates at NBC?

EB1, not ROW RD March 2025 Biometrics April 2025 - two FTA0 since then Combo card approved July 2025 Case at NBC since then. interview waived per EMMA agent every time I’ve asked (atleast 4-5 times since then) We’ve seen two recent API updates for me and my spouse at the same time, without any change in status otherwise API update/timestamp early December for both use Another API update very recently earlier this week (late January 2026) for both of us Case still at NBC per EMMA today after the two API updates - no mention of transfer. Interview still marked as waived per EMMA Has anyone else seen this API update pattern for EB cases at NBC?

2669 days and counting

I’ve been waiting for what feels like forever. I had my first interview in 2019 for my I-130, and then another interview for my I-485 in 2022. Just last week, I received a notification that I was scheduled for yet another adjustment of status interview. Two days later, I got another notification saying the interview was canceled and a notice was ordered. Today, I received the mail, and it says “Notice of Cancellation” for my adjustment of status interview due to unforeseen circumstances. What’s even more confusing is that the interview date listed on the notice is from March 2019 — the same date I originally did my I-130 interview. This whole process is honestly very confusing. I’ve read different posts and mixed opinions: Some people say receiving this notice means USCIS wants to close the case and move toward approval. Others say it might be related to the travel ban — which doesn’t make sense to me since the travel ban applies to NVC cases, not to people already in the U.S. who have completed interviews. I’d really appreciate insights from anyone who has experienced something similar or has more knowledge about this situation. Please share your thoughts.
