Emma at all. How do you guys do it? I have tried to expedite my case or something it always gives me links open the Pages for me it never try to connect me to anything
sam BekMay 10, 2022
how long it took for the judge to terminate your removal proceeding?
Claudia nkMay 10, 2022
Josue : because I have an asylum case back in 2012 before getting married to my husband . the asylum case was closed after the approval of my i130 . but my removal proceeding with the court wasn’t terminated so when I went for my i485 interview uscis didn’t have juridiction to make a decision on my case so they administratively closed it and ask for me to first terminate my removal proceeding with the court

I N: just say « schedule an Infopass appointment « Emma will ask you your zip code and then connect you to an agent
I NMay 10, 2022
yeah I don’t think it works anymore
Claudia nkMay 10, 2022
Sam bek : the motion to terminate only took 2 months for both the dhs and the judge to approved . but I have to wait more than a year to be able to submit it ( Covid 19 so the court was closed ) and also during trump era they didn’t approve any motion

@cladia were you able to have a work permit during all this waiting period or nothing at all?
Claudia nkMay 10, 2022
@🤔🤫 yes i always have a working permit . I renew 3 times in total ( it’s free to renew with the receipt of your i485 when you are in category c9) the last one came 2 months ago and it’s valid for 2 years now instead of 1 year
Jenn PMay 11, 2022
thanks I’m on the same process I wasn’t sure about that because many people saying that I shouldn’t apply for ead until after the judge terminated my proceeding but I applied for it anyway so now im just waiting. it’s only been two since I applied

@ J R
I was in removal, had i130 approved
then removal got terminated,
then my attorney sent the judge’s letter to USCIS to reopen the i485,
now it’s open and ready to schedule for an interview

thanks so much for the value info. i have the same case I-130 approved lawyer sent joint motion to reopen with ICE 2 month ago just waitting hope everything goes well with you soon
still waitingMay 16, 2022
just a quick question how long it took you the whole process to termite?
abii AbiiMay 16, 2022
@ JR it took me over 2 and half year,
it would have been done in 8 to 9 months and then Covid came, 5 of my hearings got canceled because of that,
and it took around 6 months to reopen i485 with USCIS after removal termination.
