Case Processing
Anyone else with a VAWA pending for almost 5 years?
I filed my VAWA in August 2021. I got an RFE for bona fide marriage, replied 2 months ago, and now both my I-360 and I-485 (filed in 2019 through marriage) were transferred to another office on the same day.
Has anyone had a similar timeline? Did it lead to an interview, denial, approval? If so, how much notice did USCIS give, and what happened next?
Thank you! 🙏
FINALLY
Religious worker here.
Finally, after so many years, my case has been approved. From visa retrogression to the travel ban, this journey has been one obstacle after another.
If you're affected by the travel ban, do everything legally possible to bring attention to your case. I tried everything: reached out to multiple members of Congress for assistance, submitted an e-Request service inquiry, called USCIS to try to speak with a Tier 2 officer, looked into filing a mandamus lawsuit, planned to contact the USCIS Ombudsman the following week, and, honestly, I even updated my address on the USCIS website hoping it might trigger some sort of review on their end.
This process has been long, painful, and incredibly expensive—both financially and mentally. I'm just grateful it's finally over. For the first time in years, I have real peace of mind.
If you have any questions about my journey or the process, go ahead and ask. I've got time.

Thank God Almighty.
Married in November 2025 to U.S. citizen girlfriend, after being together for 5 years, inside the U.S.
On 21 March 2026, applied for adjustment of status.
On 17 June 2026, the interview went smoothly. Most of the questions were directed to U.S. citizen wife; he was only asked questions from the I-485 form.
On 19 June 2026, the I-485 was approved.
On 26 June 2026, the card is being produced.
PD Feb. 22 - My Interview has been scheduled
I became current this month and my P4 interview letter came today. I think I got it this quickly because since the retrogression, appointments at my embassy were drastically reduced so they were barely doing any interviews. So they probably have alot of appointment slots.
Hi, we have 2 biometrics appointment.
First, we submitted Form I-131 and received a biometrics appointment. (already completed) Ten days later after 131, we submitted Form I-485 and received today another biometrics appointment. Do we need to go again biometric appointment?
