an interview so quickly ? it could be good, help the case move forward faster

it has nothing to do with the case moving fast. Last year they started randomly selecting Vawa applicants for interview due to fraud which led to certain lawyer prosecuted and jailed. The purpose is to know if you are aware of the Vawa filing and a probe on the abuse itself. However, the normal process is that your Vawa gets approved first before you are scheduled for I-485 interview but on the flip side, since you are called in for an interview now, you will likely not have another interview when your Vawa finally gets adjudicated and approved down the road. Vawa takes anywhere from 2 to 3.5 years to get approval.

that’s a good sign. don’t let others tell you how long Vawa takes. yes, it takes years for most of us but there are cases that get approved in months. you can have your lawyer with you at the interview. and since it’s only AOS, the officer can’t ask you about circumstances you filing for Vawa. unless they scheduled you for both Vawa and AOS. why did you filed with NBC and not Nebraska ?

@bridges 5 Thank you for your input, I filled vawa cause my Husband passed away. so right now, I’m tired, I started my Journey since 2020 and he passed last year, my I130 was denied and had to start all over…. my head is full and I’m just living by.

@jjjj jjj I have a lawyer so I will let her follow me to the interview, My lawyer filled the paperwork, I don’t know if it’s the NBC or Nebraska

@blessed & favored We started living together the day we got married. but sadly he passed last year.

@j da Silva I really don’t know if it’s good or not, The person that has the same type of case isn’t responding on here and the one on Reddit isn’t responding either, so I was thinking maybe they got detained.

@killian Bay so sorry to hear that and hope your case speeds up fast. Since it’s in regards to you being a widow you will have questions from both Vawa and AOS filings. Basically good faith marriage but it will turn out well for you. Best of luck.

I got a message that my I 360 form eligible what it means like 3 months ago please tell me anybody knows thank you 🙏

@killian Bay Your VAWA Is a fast track one. it’s not the regular abusive VAWA.Its a good sign. its lost spouse. Go through your VAWA statement and I-485. I have all the details of your late spouse including medical & bills
killian BaySep 4, 2025
@blessed & favored thank you so much, I really don’t know it’s different.
jjjj jjjSep 4, 2025
I’m sorry for your loss. did you file for vawa before your spouse passed? you use the same for I360 but instead of applicant of VAWA, you use it as a widower. this is not related to Vawa. I360 holds many types of applications.
jjjj jjjSep 4, 2025
you can apply as a widower, which is way way faster than VaWA
killian BaySep 4, 2025
@jjjj jjj I filled as a widower, I really don’t know vawa is different from a widower petition. Thank you
killian BaySep 4, 2025
@r or is it for Vawa or Widower petition?

vawa case
jjjj jjjSep 4, 2025
@killian Bay that makes perfect sense. forget about vawa since both petitions will use I360, that’s why others thought about vawa. good luck with the interview.
killian BaySep 12, 2025
@jjjj jjj I really don’t know what to do I swear, I’m just tired.
jjjj jjjSep 12, 2025
@killian Bay what are you supposed to do to begin with ? take it easy. your AOS interview is scheduled. you’re good to go
