Expedit Request
Hello everyone,
I hope you’re all doing well. I’m reaching out because I’m considering submitting an expedited request to USCIS and would really appreciate any advice or experiences you might have.
For those who have gone through this process, could you share what steps you took, what you included in your request, and what you said in the email?
I’m in a particularly difficult situation right now. I have a 5-month-old child with someone else, not my abuser, but I was also facing abuse from my child’s father. I’ve managed to escape that situation, but I feel like I need to go somewhere else for a while to catch my breath. I have a good job, but the emotional toll of everything has left me feeling overwhelmed and depressed. I really need to see my family and friends overseas to help me regain some strength.
Any guidance you can provide would mean the world to me. Thank you so much in advance for your support.
Take care, and stay strong. #vawa #greencard #marriage #combocard #ead

I sent some doctors reports and wrote a letter that I would like to marry someone to start a new life to get out of the depression. They approved my request 4 days after they reviewed my documents. From there it took additional 10 days to get my Vawa approved

@bibi rahima can you please share me that letter what doctor said and how you requested it can make a lot of difference in my case and help me get out of this suffering
bibi rahimaAug 13, 2024
@Mandy Miss unfortunately my doctor reports are confidential so I’m not able to send them to you but give me your email, I’ll explain in detail. and I have no copy of the letter. the original copy was sent out to the uscis.
bibi rahimaAug 13, 2024
@jay c the letter was written by my attorneys paralegal based on my verbal statement. I actually had an accident at the subway and I was hospitalised and they reported that I became dizzy from overthinking and depression. and my gynaecologist reported depression as well
bibi rahimaAug 13, 2024
I also said in the letter that I have been in relationship with someone but I am not able to get married until my vawa approval. I explained that I’m a Muslim and I can’t be in a relationship without marriage

just do a mandamus
Cerj RajAug 18, 2024
You can get a decision within 60 days by filing mandamus, for a fair price as this person mentioned you can get assistance from Mandamus Pro Se https://www.lawfully.com/community/posts/new-card-is-being-produced--i-485-here-we-go--finally--vwJRkV4XswCSCFNgFC2j1g==

@Good vibes For ever So what would you call it when addressing uscis?
Missy MayAug 19, 2024
@P A @Cerj Raj My lawyer filed the expedited request on August 15th
Should I still file for mandamus or wait!?
Good vibes For everAug 19, 2024
@Miss Mandy I guess wake up call xo xo gongratulations
Cerj RajAug 19, 2024
@Miss Mandy
If you cannot wait, and in somewhat rush, probably file mandamus, so you can get a decision within 60 days.
