Case Processing
prima facie 6
Hi everyone, I filed my VAWA I-360 in June 2022 and have already received 6 Prima Facie determinations. My case is still pending. Has anyone had a similar situation and eventually received approval? How long after the last Prima Facie did you get a decision? Thank you so much for sharing.

Immigration Full Travel Ban
Anyone receive any information after the most recent proclamation which removes exemptions from immediate family visas. Does this mean that we can no longer bring our spouses to the USA?
The Proclamation continues the full restrictions and entry limitations of nationals from the original 12 high-risk countries established under Proclamation 10949: Afghanistan, Burma, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen.
Presidential Proclamation 10998 (effective Jan 1, 2026) restricts entry to the U.S. for nationals of certain countries and removes automatic exceptions for immediate family/spousal visas

Green card applications
Green card applications were put on hold as of today and everyone is now required to go to a mandatory interview as of today. ThIs is only if you are included on one of the high risk countries(full ban and partial ban). That is the link if you want to read it. I am just so disappointed
