this is a widower petition. my case was denied after my husband died, so I had to file VAWA. what do you think they’re going to ask me?

@jacob lion That’s good, No update on mine yet. it’s been 28 days still at ready to be scheduled.

jacob lionAug 15, 2025
@killian Bay did you check your mailbox?
d sAug 15, 2025
@jacob lion Hey, I'm really sorry you're going through all this. But I was wondering, you said nothing changed in your online case status but you still got an interview date by mail, can I ask what the last update on your I-485 was? Mine says: “The new office has jurisdiction” and it's been like that for 85 days now. I'm getting kind of worried because when I called USCIS, they said they mailed something to me but couldn’t tell me what it was. I'm afraid it might have been an interview notice and I didn’t receive it
j
jacob lionAug 15, 2025
@d s I got an interview notice after a few day when my case changed to interview is ready to be scheduled but it’s still the same on my online account but every case is different so please don’t be worried, contact with USCIS and try to learn from them and call post office and ask them about any letter from USCIS , your turn is coming soon 🙏
killian BayAug 15, 2025
@jacob lion I check everyday.
killian BaySep 2, 2025
@jacob lion did you have your interview yet? happy Labor Day.
killian BaySep 3, 2025
@jacob lion my interview has been scheduled
killian BaySep 3, 2025
@jacob lion are you okay? please can you get back to me?

@killian Bay Hey, I just wanted to share a quick update with you. My interview went really well — the officer was very understanding and empathetic. Right now, my case status hasn’t updated in the system yet, but that’s completely normal. Sometimes it takes days or even a couple of weeks because of supervisor review and system backlog. So don’t stress if you don’t see changes right away. For your own interview, the best thing you can do is make sure all your documents are organized and easy to access. The officer will likely ask you about: • How and when you met your spouse • Details of your marriage (dates, places, how you lived together) • How your spouse passed away • Your relationship with their family and children (if applicable) • And then the standard yes/no questions from Form I-485. They might also ask about your daily life together — things like where you lived, what activities you enjoyed, or how you supported each other. If you have photos, joint documents, leases, or financial records, bring them. It’s not about showing everything at once, but having them ready if they ask. Honestly, the most important thing is to speak from the heart. They can see and feel when your story is real, and that’s what makes the difference. Also, sorry for the late reply — I haven’t been checking this app much because I needed some time to clear my head. Stay calm, prepare your papers, and remember: you’ve got this. 🙏

hello, we have the same case. I filed 360 and 485 separately. my 360 was approved half year ago, and now my interview for 485 is scheduled on 9/9. I see your interview is on today, I hope everything works out well for you
l
lucky xSep 4, 2025
@jacob lion congratulations on your interview and thank you so much for your detailed information. may I ask how long did the interview take? did you bring a lawyer with you? I filed my 485 after my i360 was approved. next week will be my interview day, I’m feel under pressure about it. since my i360 was approved before I submitted i475, not sure what the interview will be like.;(
killian BaySep 4, 2025
@jacob lion Thank you so much for your input, Is your I360 still pending? what did they say about your I360? I was scared something had happened. Thank you so much for responding.
killian BaySep 4, 2025
@lucky x I was just scheduled for an interview, My I360 is still pending, is not approved yet.

lucky xSep 4, 2025
@killian Bay a scheduled interview is a good sign I would say, as long as your marriage is bona fide, you can get your decision really quick. even your i360 is still pending, if you got approved on your interview for 485, you still can get the card. I hope we all have good news. finger crossed… let’s keep in touch!
j
jacob lionSep 5, 2025
@killian Bay everything is still the same nothing changed on my cases and still waiting :(
killian BaySep 12, 2025
@jacob lion We will get good news IJN, Did they say anything about your I360 or they just said you have to wait?
j
jacob lionSep 12, 2025
Hey @killian Bay I hope so 🙏 He had only told me that it was approved by him but that a supervisor’s final approval was required, and that this could take 4–6 weeks. That’s all. I haven’t seen any updates in the system yet.
j
jacob lionSep 12, 2025
@killian Bay when is your interview?
killian BaySep 12, 2025
is in October but I didn’t receive the letter, My lawyer said I should meet with her on 29th of this month, she didn’t tell me the date yet, but I know is October cause they scheduled it on 9/3. That’s a good decision. so the officer has jurisdiction on both I360 and I485? @jacob lion My lawyer received the letter, I wonder why they didn’t send it to me.
killian BaySep 14, 2025
@jacob lion first week of next month, I got the letter in the mail yesterday.
j
jacob lionSep 15, 2025
@killian Bay I am so happy for you 🙏 you will be fine , I am still waiting for my approval but everything is still the same in my online account
killian BaySep 25, 2025
@jacob lion I hope you get good news by next month ijn…. this waiting I draining!!!
