@tired from waitingg Hi, May I ask if there's a reason you haven't pursued a writ of mandamus? I honestly think it's something you should seriously consider. If you'd rather not hire a lawyer, here's a step-by-step guide from a Reddit VAWA applicant who filed the lawsuit himself and successfully got his case resolved: https://www.reddit.com/r/USCIS/comments/1ho0adh/stepbystep_guide_on_how_i_filed_a_writ_of/ Don't be afraid to fight for your rights. Speaking from my own experience, no matter how carefully I planned my life, it was incredibly difficult to move forward while my immigration case was pending. Things like building investments, buying a home, and even feeling secure in my job all felt like they were on hold. Living with that uncertainty is exhausting. I truly hope you consider taking that step. Wishing you the very best, and I hope you receive good news soon.

@Waiting Cat i agree, i think they should file mandamus as well. i am currently following the same guide to do the same. the waiting has me stressed and anxious all the time about the fact that our life is really on hold

Expedite your case or file writ of mandamus

@Waiting Cat I had this conversation with him months ago and he said he don’t mind waiting is because of people like him that uscis don’t give a shit anymore

come onnnnn - who was your attorney?

@Waiting Cat thank you for that I will look into it 🙏@David D It not that but work is busy dont really have time to do this myself but you are right hif everyone do mandamus it would be maybe faster I agree. @Ivan b I dont have a lawyer maybe thats why taking too long

@Man Man expedite reason tho what would be?

If I were you I wouldn’t spend even 1 more day and file mandamus first thing in the morning @tired from waitingg

@Ivan b but what if they will ask rfe I send them everything like literally court order doctor report bills etc everything i dont have nothing new that kinda backing me up too

@tired from waitingg mandamus is to force them to make a decision if u already sent them everything they needed they will be forced to male a decision not to ask for more proves

Its better if they ask RFE it means your case is moving. If I were you I wouldn’t spend one more day when it’s out of normal processing time. obviously something is wrong with your case find an attorney doesn’t matter good or bad just ask 5-6 different ones tell them you will file mandamus and pay installment bro come on do not waste your time. I read many stories when they ask RFE people send exact same things. you can send them same things as well

I have a friend he recently filed mandamus in 3 months they approved his GC @tired from waitingg

I also read people file mandamus by themselves

I think USCIS is waiting for you to have an attorney and then they will approve your GC

@Ivan b thank you for answering me. I should really do mandamus actually i wonder if i can do both 360 and 485 same time

like do 360 first and after decision hopefully approved do 485 to get gc

@tired from waitingg I heard u do for both

I got approved in January this year for EAD, travel permit and green card. have been waiting for EAD since so it's been 8 months already. Anyone went through Vawa process and might know how long it takes for a EAD card to get to my mail.? I also didn't need to do biometrics since I had a work permit before so they just transferred it (fingerprints).

if you got the approval for green card I don’t think they mail you EAD and AP? @ilija kovacevic you already have a green card?

@Ivan b can't have a green card before I receive work permit in vawa process. no, I don't have a green card yet

@ilija kovacevic What u mean your green card approved and waiting EAD doesn’t make any sense im so confused if you have green card your technically done with processes.

@tired from waitingg I sent I-131, I-485, I-765 all together for vawa and I got approved/3 diff recipes for each case. I am so confused why would you ask these questions, if you are in the process you should know that by applying for those three cases wich is travel,work permit and adjust of status , you are going to receive first EAD card lol. that's what I am saying I haven't gotten EAD card and I have filed these three cases last year on May 28th, since then I am waiting for EAD (work permit) of course waiting on travel permit and green card later on but first I gotta get EAD. hope you get it now :) and to add I got approved in January this year meaning I got my reciepts to follow my cases.

@ilija kovacevic lol look what you said previously you said “I got approved in January this year for EAD, trabel permit and green card” if you approved green card you don’t need no EAD no travel permit you have green card 😅

@tired from waitingg please update here when you file mandamus

@tired from waitingg hey have you filed mandamus yet?
