Case Processing
Question About Violence Against Women Act Petition and Derivative Children Approval
If a woman recently filed her VAWA petition and included her unmarried children under the age of 21, who are currently living in Nigeria from her previous marriage in Nigeria, from which she is now divorced, would including them affect how long it takes for her VAWA case to be approved? Approximately how many years should she expect to wait for a decision? Also, if her VAWA petition is approved, will her children’s cases be automatically approved as derivative beneficiaries, even though they are outside the United States?

EB1-C Waiting over a year after Interview
My EB1-C I-485 has been pending after interview for more than one year, my priority date appears current (July 27, 2021), and USCIS says the case is within processing time. Do you recommend only service requests/congressional inquiry, or is this a reasonable mandamus/APA delay case?

Hi everyone, is there anyone here who filed their documents around April 2023? I submitted both my I-601 and I-212, but it's been over 1,000 days now and I still haven't heard anything back. Has anyone received any updates or news on their waivers lately?
