Submission of Form I-693 (Medicals)
Hello Fam, just saw this. Guess this is applicable to us VAWA applicants that have already filed form I-485 and still. waiting on approval? Thank You!
As of December 2, 2024, applicants seeking to adjust their status to permanent residency in the United States must submit Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, with their Form I-485. Failure to do so may result in the rejection of the Form I-485 application.
Need Advice on Pending I-130 and Re-entry Options
Hello, everyone,
I’m seeking advice on my immigration situation and would appreciate any guidance. Here’s my story:
I married a U.S. citizen and received work authorization, and everything was going well until October 2019 when my father became gravely ill. I traveled to my home country to visit him, but upon returning to the U.S., I was detained and questioned by authorities. They found personal messages between my wife and me, which they used against me. I was given two options: leave voluntarily or stay in detention. Fearing for my father’s health and being told I wouldn't be able to contact anyone for a long time, I chose to leave voluntarily.
After leaving, I hired a lawyer and filed an I-130 petition in 2019. However, I haven’t received any updates from USCIS since then. When I check my case online, it still shows as pending. My wife and I have been waiting for years, but we’ve lost hope.
I have a few questions and would appreciate any advice:
Is it worth continuing to fight my case if I return to the U.S. by crossing the border?
If I get caught crossing the border, will they send me back immediately, or will I be detained and allowed to remain in the U.S.?
If I make it to the U.S. before the current administration leaves office, what are my chances of avoiding deportation if I live in a sanctuary city like Chicago?
If I manage to enter the U.S., would I be able to reopen my case and continue the process?
I’ve heard stories of people crossing the border and staying without any issues, but I’m worried about how this might affect my case and future. Any advice or similar experiences would mean a lot to me and my family.
Thank you in advance!

Processing Time
Good morning everyone,
Has anyone experienced USCIS processing time?
I checked my case two days ago, the status was 6 months until decision.
now I checked today it is saying 17 months
this is the second time this has happened.
the cases has already been processing for 9 months now.
I’m just really confused as to why time frame keeps changing.

i have a question people
me aparece caso listo para una programación de entrevista, alguien me puede decir si también les sucedió esto? pensé que ya no estaban pidiendo entrevistas, no tengo nada que ocultar, tengo una hija ya con mi esposo y llevamos juntos hace mucho tiempo solo que me llamó la atención, mi abogada me dijo que posiblemente no me la pidan.
luego de eso, se demorará mucho en aprobarse?
yo tenía fe de poder ir a mi país estás navidad 😞
