Case Processing
I-765 under VAWA
I’m looking for some advice from anyone with a similar timeline.
I filed my VAWA case together with my I-485 and I-765 (category C09). I completed biometrics over 7 months ago, and I’m still waiting for my EAD with no updates at all.
I’m currently an international student (not from one of the travel-restricted countries) and I’m worried because I need my work authorization to continue working after I graduate.
Has anyone with a VAWA-based C09 EAD been waiting this long? When did you receive your approval?
Also, has anyone successfully expedited their I-765? If so, what reason did you use, and what evidence did USCIS ask for? I’m wondering if severe financial loss or a job offer has worked for anyone.

EB-1A, filed Dec 2025, wife got her EAD but I got nothing — anyone else?
Hi everyone. Looking to connect with anyone in a similar situation.
I'm EB-1A, from Brazil, with my I-140 already approved before filing. My wife and I filed our I-485 and I-765 concurrently on December 26, 2025.
Here's what's driving me crazy: my wife already received her EAD back in April — but I've gotten nothing. No green card, and no EAD either. Both of ours were filed the same day, same way.
I understand the green card can take a long time, and I've made peace with that. What's really wearing me down is the EAD.
My I-765 has been stuck with no movement since January. Meanwhile my wife's went through without issue.
Is anyone else in this boat? Did yours eventually move? Anything that helped?
Honestly running out of ideas at this point. Any shared experience would mean a lot. Thanks.

rfe medical Cincinnati
I received an RFE for the medical exam on June 1st and responded on June 18th. I had to send it twice because the first one was marked as lost, but in the end, both arrived on the same day (the 18th). It’s at the Cincinnati, Ohio location—I see a lot of people getting approved there. How long are they taking to respond to RFEs? Please share your experiences.
