What’s your experience with CHEN?
I applied for I-140 with Chen and got an RFE, then a rejection later. My contract with Chen includes unlimited applications until we get an approval, so I applied using Chen for the second time a year later. Since it has been a year already, I’m worried that I’ll get another rejection. If you applied for NIW with Chen, can you tell me how was your experience? Has anyone been rejected twice using Chen as their lawyer? Thank you in advance..

My experience traveling though JFK
I arrived at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) last night after being abroad for four days on a short business trip. Upon arrival, I was referred to secondary inspection as usual. I expected a brief delay of a few minutes; however, the process took over four hours.
During this time, I was fingerprinted, and a full criminal background check was conducted. The officers then questioned whether I was required to pay a $1,000 parole fee to be readmitted into the United States. I informed them that VAWA applicants are exempt from this fee. After verifying this information, they confirmed that I did not have to pay.
The officers explained that due to recent procedural changes, three supervisory approvals were required to finalize my clearance. Obtaining all three signatures took approximately two additional hours. In the end, the officers apologized for the delay and stated that these new verification steps are part of an updated process.
While the situation was ultimately resolved, the extended detention caused significant inconvenience and uncertainty. I am documenting this experience for future reference and to highlight potential issues with new reentry protocols affecting VAWA applicants traveling on advance parole.
I don't understand what's going on with USCIS. As an American citizen, my case is taking far too long. I submitted the documents last August and haven't even received a response or anything.,
Honestly, these people need to behave better, because I have seen similar cases to mine approved since the same date,
VAWA case was transferred to another office!
Does anyone know what is that mean for my case! and what to expect next!
