ok so my husband and I no longer together been year and we have so much issue because he thought he could come over here have his green card and leave but unfortunately for him he left before the green card he thought they just gonna give to him without me knowing so after he find out that he couldn’t get it without me he came back home try to get an evidence so he can file for vawa unfortunately for him again he call the police and lie that i stabbed him blabla and the police come and find that he was lying he actually beat me up took my phone and forgot that he had my phone with him and try to lie on me saying bunch of stuff that night he ending up going to jail because the police didn’t see any evidence and ask why he took my phone away if I was abused him why provinding from calling for help? so they charge him with 911 faulse reports or something then he shows up for his court day then run so the juge put him on most wanted with 10.000 fine 5 days later the police got him he went back to jails again for 10days and accepted all the charges long story short his immigration case that i filed got redrawn now he got lawyer and he told me his lawyer filed for vawa so now the immigration case went from redrawn to actively reviewing I have all the prouve from the juge I also let immigration know we are not together it’s been 13 months now and we don’t live together but he keep texting me saying that he gonna have his green card through vawa he lawyer guranty him and I’m gonna have problems he is gonna make sure of that. my questions is it’s possible for him to apply for vawa even he is charge with domestic violence plus the most wanted that the juge put him on and what problems I’m gonna have? i didn’t do anything he is the one that was using me for green card now he is mad that his plan didn’t work out now it’s going for vawa and say he is gonna put me in problem and also he file for divorce now he try to stop the divorce but I went and file to stop him from stopping the divorce since past 3 month he keep begging me to get back with me but every time he ask me out or to come to see me he get mad and send me a text like I’m gonna take the kids from you I’m gonna tell immigration that I’m a fraud all those type of thing I’m exhausted what can do or send to immigrants that he is the one that entering the marriage with not good faith ?

Approved!
Hello Lawfully family! After 19 months and 4 weeks, I can finally post that our case has been approved! To God be the glory! 🙏🏼 For those of you who are just starting your journey, have faith, check in with the Lawfully community when you’re feeling down or just need answers, follow only a couple of resources on YouTube and do not be afraid to advocate for yourself! Ask Emma, JSON, calling or chatting with USCIS were all good resources to get answers but it wasn’t until I involved my congressman that I truly received assistance. I moved during the process so I asked a few senators and congressmen, even the White House! Never take a No from someone who never had the authority to say Yes in the first place! I thought our case was straight forward but we got transferred and then hit with an RFE at the end for a proxy marriage. Filing a I-129 did not help and we were not successful with obtaining a visitor visa for my husband once we filed the I-130. Getting a ITIN for the purpose of filing taxes and getting a joint bank account helped. So did Changing my name, getting a new license and passport and visiting my husband in his home country with family certainly helped! I’m not sure if the administrative change affected our wait time which seemed to increase drastically during the last administration. Stay focused, determined and ready for the next step at all times. My prayers are with you all! NVC let’s go! 🙏🏼🇺🇸🇳🇬
