Case Processing
🙏❤️ A Prayer for Everyone Who Is Waiting on God
Heavenly Father, I pray for everyone who is waiting for an answer, a breakthrough, or a blessing.
Lord, the same way You gave me peace and made me forget that the Lawfully app was even on my phone, I pray that You do the same for them.
Remove their anxiety, fear, stress, and constant worrying. Help them stop checking for updates every minute and trust Your perfect timing.
Isaiah 60:22: “I the LORD will hasten it in his time.”
Psalm 27:14: “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart.”
Philippians 4:6: “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.”
Father, while they are waiting, give them peace. Let their testimony come when they least expect it.
What God has promised, He will fulfill in His perfect timing. 🙏❤️
In Jesus' name, Amen! 🙌
EXPEDITE
I filed my I-360 (VAWA) and I-485 together in May 2022, and I’ve been waiting for almost 53 months now.
Unfortunately, the business I work for is being shut down due to a City Council decision, so I’m going to lose my job and my only source of income. My EAD is still valid, but I’ll be facing serious financial difficulties, especially with rent and living expenses.
Can I request an expedite for my I-360 based on financial hardship, even though my EAD is still valid?
Has anyone been in a similar situation or successfully expedited their VAWA case due to financial hardship? Does waiting almost 53 months make any difference?
EB-2 Follow-to-Join: NVC Expedited Case to Embassy, I-824 Pending
I became a permanent resident through EB-2 adjustment of status. My child was already registered as a derivative beneficiary in CEAC.
NVC issued an “Expedite Notification” and transferred our immigrant visa case to the U.S. Embassy before my I-485 was approved.
After I adjusted status, NVC explicitly instructed me in writing that I must file Form I-824 for eligible family members to follow to join. I followed those instructions, and my I-824 is currently pending.
CEAC still shows the case at the Embassy, with my child listed as a derivative beneficiary.
My question: Since the case was already expedited and transferred to the Embassy, is I-824 approval still required, or can the Embassy process my child’s follow-to-join visa using my approved I-485 and Green Card?
Has anyone experienced a similar situation?

F2B 2025 visas data analysis
I did my research based on the publicly available data posted by USCIS at the beginning of 2026 for F2B category. So according to the data, USCIS is issuing or using only 46% of all available visas in F2B category and leaving the rest of it unused or transferring these unused visas to the employment category. The majority of recipients are coming from 3 countries: Dominican Republic, Mexico, Filipinos. There were only 2 F2B visas issued to Canada, 1 to Ukraine, 4 to India. and so on. I wanted to share with you this data and let you know that the visa you are waiting for is available but it is not being processed for whatever reason and it is your responsibility to call USCIS or submit a request to find out the status of your application.
