Approval letter
From February 28th, 2024 to May 12th, 2025, I've checked everyday in hopes of seeing an approval. The suggested time on the my progress tab has been up and down. It changed several times before being stuck at 7 months and then being eventually approved. My advice, completely disregard the timeframe displayed under the my progress tab. It's no where near accurate. As of today, approval of a consular processing I13O takes approximately 14.5 months if filed by a U.S. citizen. Hang in there everyone. Don't loose hope. Your time is coming.

Vawa derivate 22years old
Hello
my daughter was 19 when my I apply for Vawa.
now Vawa was approved she is now 22, my lawyer told me that she needs to file an i485 by herself (there might be a way to put her as my derivative they also said.)
if she can’t be under my i485 under which category (visa bulletin) does she fall to apply?
when I filed the petition I was still married.
The Child Status Protection Act (CSPA) does that help here ?
thanks in advance.

Kindly advise if I should attend this interview or no
I am a spouse of the principal applicant in an asylum case and we have 3 kids together. we had issues and divorced. I got married to an American and the marriage did not last and we divorced again. I and my first wife that had 3 kids together reconciled after my divorce from the second marriage and got married again. Now they invited the principal applicant and dependents for the asylum interview. Should I attend the interview with her and the kids since I was a dependent when it was filed and we are legally Married? please help
