Hi congrats can you advice what documents you submitted did you submit police report, psychological evaluation, text messages, witness statement, joint rental agreement , bank statement and did you get any rfe for additional information thank you

same situation!! I requested to uscis hold my I-485 in abeyance (submitted on July 2019). Last month I got my vawa approved and no updates whatsoever on my I-485 so far. Neither deficiency letter … It took 2 1/2 for my I-360 got approved, hopefully will not take the same for adjustment status! fingers crossed 🤞

When did you submit I-360 and I-485? local field office will be handling your I-485

@yj i submitted my personal affidavit friends affidavit familys affidavit my wife's bestfriends affidavit bank account rental agreement life insurance. thats all

@sanjay kark. my i-360 was submitted august 2021, approved in 14 months october 2022. 485 was submitted along with my 130. sept 2019

@hope in justice goodluck to us. we have the same timeline. y got ur c31?

@marvin yes I already received my C-31. I filed my I-485 along with my I-130 on July 2019. On Feb 2020 I requested to put in abeyance. USCIS at that time updated my I-485 as RFE received and nothing more. I’m in California too, our situation is pretty much on the same stage 😅

wow lucky you I applied in jan 2021 ….

@hope in justice. let me know if y got any updates. ill update u too!

@laura b. yes it was unexpectedly quick 14 months! my lawyer said the normal wait for vawa approvals are 2 years and so

@marvin sure I will keep you posted !! Good luck to us 🍀🙏

@hope in justice. hey! any movements?

nope. same stage no uodates at all :(

@hope in justice. me too still waiting

@marvin this wait kills. can’t wait to close this chapter in my life 🙏

I’m in the same situation. 🥹 Please post an update here if you have any progress.

@D P 2 month since vawa approval. no movement still

7 months on avg for i485 interview

@sanjay how do u know? ok then i have 5 months left. haha

@marvin, have you ever got any mail stating that your 485 was hold in abeyance? I am afraid Uscis doesn’t interfile 360 properly along with 485..

@mh no mails. my i-485 status just change to correspondence received and USCiS is reviewing

amazing 🤩

any updates everyone? any approvals for 485?

@V A Hi 👋 actually i got that information from the live chat agents that my i-485 is now processing at NBC. i did not send any letters. the next time i tried asking those chat agents they told me that they cant access my case and i have to write to VSC. bla bla. its kinda annoying agents tells us different stories. some are just lazy to do their work some are just helpful.

@v a no rfe yes lucky 14 months. i just received 1 prima facie

@V A hey im actually not sure. my lawyer did all the paperwork for me. sorry!

@V A oct 2022 360 approved. march 2023 485 approved

@V A yes i did received 693 rfe. received the rfe feb 7, mailed in feb 28, approved by march 28. i received my 693 rfe sent by Los Angeles field office which is my FO

@V A is your vawa approved now?

@V A ok. time will come my friend. so after my vawa is approved it took another 6 months to finish 485. long wait!

@V A yes same 485. i did not file a new one. my lawyer said no need to file a new one

@V A im afraid i might give you the wrong information. please ask others too. im not sure where my lawyer sent it. every paperwork i have is completed by my lawyer

@V A why do u sound like ur mad?

@V A i suggest you create a new thread and maybe someone will answer you. im really sorry i really dont know the answer to your question. my apologies

@Marvin: after your vawa approval, did you have to ask for i-485 to be released from abeyance or it was done by USCIS itself?

@bay bay no. i did not do anything. uscis will pull up your held i485 once vawa is approved.
