My lawyer applied through Vermont, but I sometimes see people commenting about Nebraska, which seems much faster. Does anyone know the difference?
I came to the United States for a dream wedding, which turned into a nightmare. Scared and without friends, I turned to the first lawyer I saw in a Facebook ad. Unfortunately, that lawyer only took advantage of me. I was too afraid to do anything and had no one to rely on.
It’s been five years, and today I have more knowledge. So, make sure to choose your lawyer carefully.

Vawa cases started to be sent to Nebraska from April 2024, before that all vawa were sent to Vermont.
It's not by choice.
As per today only Vermont & Nebraska Service Center adjudicate vawa.

I was in the same boat. I got a lawyer in 2020 she messed up my whole document, in 2021 my 485 was rejected and reason was payment. I told her she bluntly told me No. After months of waiting I asked her to check the returns document. Reluctantly she did and told me my bad. I applied again gave her the money she charged me for the same thing. she took out the biometric money claiming that I already did it. uscis returned all my forms. I thank God to my address. I went through it and saw series of mistakes and errors.
I have to cancel the form and filed a new form because there was a lot of mistakes. Today I have my Green card. I did everything myself.
