question related to pending vawa!
Hi everyone :)
My vawa has been pending since April 2022 I got nothing besides PF! In April’26 I reached out to my congressman and they Submit an inquiry to USCIS on my behalf. I have yet not heard from them. It’s been three months. They also don’t reply to my E-Mails. Has anyone Experienced 3 months + waiting to hear from their local comgresman?!
Refund Notice
Hi folks, I just got an update that USCIS has mailed a refund for my case, but the case is still pending. My application is EB1A premium processing, I applied last year in October, got an RFE and responded to the RFE back in January 2026.
Who knows what that means in regards to the possible outcome of my case?

Airline Captain Seeking EB-2 NIW Refiling Advice
I am a South African airline captain, instructor and examiner with more than 17,000 flight hours, including extensive Boeing 737 command and training experience. I previously filed an EB-2 NIW petition based on my aviation safety, training and operational expertise, but the case was denied after an RFE. I am now reviewing the decision and considering a stronger refiling. I joined this community to learn from successful NIW applicants, especially aviation professionals and applicants who qualified through exceptional ability without a university degree. I would also appreciate recommendations for immigration lawyers with proven experience handling pilot or aviation-related NIW cases.
Marriage-Based I-485 — Mount Laurel FO (60 Days Post-Interview)
Hi everyone! Looking to connect with anyone who had a recent interview at the Mount Laurel, NJ Field Office.
• Form: Marriage-Based I-485

• Interview Date: May 29, 2026
• Current Status: "USCIS Is Currently Processing The Case" / "Actively Reviewing" (Updated on interview day)
It’s been 60 days since my interview with no new updates or RFEs. Is anyone with a late May interview at Mount Laurel still waiting, or have you received your approval recently?
Would love to hear your timelines! Thanks in advance! 🙏
Case Status Mismatch
has anyone ever seen a case like this?
My pd is 02/2022. Im an the principal application eb3. My i-485 case was filled on 01/2023. My spouse is a derivative applicant under my petition and her I-485 was filled on 04/2026. Recently my spouse I-485 application was approved on July 25th and the card was produced on July 29th. However my primary i-485 case status is still in “Case remains Pending”. As i know, a derivative applicant’s I-485 can’t be approved unless the principal applicant’s petition is also approved. I was trying to contact USCIS or chat with emma but there was no response. My case is in the San Fernando Valley Field Office now.
celebrating with others
I'll keep celebrating this kind of joy every time someone gets approved here until it's finally my turn. I truly believe my day is coming
and I pray it's very soon.
We'll be dashing after one another here, day after day, celebrating victory after victory!
🙏🏾 Heavenly Father, thank You for every door You open and every life You bless. As You have remembered others, I ask that You remember me too. Let my long wait come to an end, replace my anxiety with peace, and let my testimony be next. May everyone still waiting receive favor, breakthrough, and good news in Your perfect timing. In Jesus' name, Amen. ❤️
