APPROVED I-485, I-360
Had my I-485 interview yesterday after approved I-360 petition in 2024. Status today shows I-485 Green card is APPROVED. 6 whole years of turmoil with 17 Notices of Actions, 6 EADs, multiple Prima Facies and a whole lot of mental, physical and emotional warfare. Through this process, I stand as testimony that patience is truly a virtue and delay is definitely not denial. It still feels like a dream. I am thankful to God Almighty, family, friends, and to all the people of lawfully who strive to achieve the American dream. Though not an easy road, indeed it is possible. I urge everyone to persist in faith, live a good life, and don’t lose yourself during this process. Happy Holidays! #VAWA #I-360 #F-1 #Student #I-485 #Approved #GreenCard #interview #I-140 #ScheduleA #Healthcare

@r or first time I am hearing of eligibility notice for a 360 case. This can be likened to a Prima Facie document which just means you may be approved. Best wishes!

Chucks chachachaDec 17, 2025
@I declare in name of Jesus declare Yes I went with a lawyer and it was a relaxing experience. Questions: 1. Are you still married to your USC? If divorced what is the decree date, provide document. 2. What is your full name and DOB? 3. What is your current address? (Apartment or House) 4. Where do you work? (Full Address) 5. What visa status did you have prior to filing for I-485? 6. What petition is this I-485 based on? 7. How many times have you been married? 8. Do you have your passports and updated medical document? 9. All the I-485 yes or no questions 10. W2s and tax return or transcripts 11. Do you have any other documents to support your case? Best wishes at your upcoming interview!

AJ powerDec 19, 2025
@Chucks chachacha I was asked how I met my husband and what was the relationship like? why would he say some of the stuff in my I-130 interview then my lawyer intervened and said why are you asking questions about what the abuser said I have an approved VAWA so we should not go back to that. the supervisor came and then after the officer started asking me the I-485 questions

Chucks chachachaJan 12, 2026
@AJ power apparently the officers reserve the right to ask you questions from current or previous cases. Your lawyer should know this and should not have intervened. Not answering all the questions asked is more like you’re conducting your own interview which should not be the case. I think post interview, a decision should be made around 180 days. Nonetheless, continue to keep the faith alive. Call, create service requests, write the office if you have to. Best wishes @AJ power
