@f g Appreciate you 🙏🏽✨

congratulations

@Rose peter Thank you 🫶🏼

congratulations 🎊 @Rebecca A please what did you submit for your rfe if you don’t mind sharing it

@a d 1. Good moral character -Letters from friends and neighbors testifying to my good moral character. -Live Scan fingerprinting submitted to the FBI, and the FBI sent back a report (within 24 hours) confirming that I had no criminal record. - A personal letter from me describing my daily life, what I like to do, and providing an overall picture of myself as a stable person surrounded by a community. (Note: For this part, it can be helpful to include letters from people in your community, such as friends, neighbors, or even someone from a church, showing that you are not isolated and that you have positive relationships.) 2. Good Faith Marriage: -Additional photos of me and my husband, and also photos with friends showing we shared a life together. - Letters from friends who personally knew us as a married couple. - A picture of a physical debit card that had both my name and my husband’s name on it. (My attorney explained that although I didn’t have online access to the account, the physical card with both names was proof.) - A screenshot of text messages between me and my husband, such as casual conversations showing everyday life together (e.g., me texting him about going to the grocery store). - A letter from our roommate confirming that we both lived there together, and explaining that the lease and utilities were under her name, which is why our names did not appear on those bills.

thanks for sharing. all this time you didn’t have work permit? didn’t you submitted at once form 485, and 765 for work permit?

@Rebecca A when did u get prima facie???

@G R No, during all that time I didn’t have a work permit. What happened is that my attorney filed my VAWA (Form I-360) together with my work permit application (Form I-765). However, I wasn’t eligible to file for adjustment of status (Form I-485) yet, because if I remember correctly, I had overstayed my previous visa and had unlawful presence. So my attorney said I couldn’t file the I-485 at that time. Since I didn’t have adjustment of status pending, my work permit request was based on deferred action (I think that falls under category C14). But in VAWA cases, unless you already have deferred action granted, you usually have to wait until VAWA is approved before you can actually get a work permit. So that’s why I only got my work permit at the same time as my VAWA approval. (I’m not an attorney, but that’s how I understood it.)

@Jesus baby Forever ✨ Thank you everyone ❤️

@ustaad G I received my first Prima Facie in January 2022, and after that, I got a new one every six months.

@Rebecca A got it, thanks for clarifying. my case is similar to yours, although my attorney advised me to include 485 concomitently.

congratulations 🔥🔥

@G R Thanks for sharing. That’s great for you, you’ll probably save some time. Personally, I wasn’t given that option by my attorney, but I wish I had known. For me, the VAWA process felt like the most complicated and difficult part, and now that it’s approved, I think I’ll handle the Adjustment of Status on my own.

congratulations 🎊

congratulations! I’m also November 2021. I’m next in line! Amen

congratulations. God be praised. you are almost at the finish line

@Rebecca A You did not send the documents of the good faith marriage first.

thank you everyone 🫶🏼✨

@God is great! Really great Yessss 🙏🏽✨

@Mar 21 Filer Thank you 🙏🏽✨✨

@🙏🙏🙏🙏 ❤️ Yes, I did send evidence with my initial VAWA application in 2021. I included joint bank account statements, a roommate agreement with both of our names, a testimony letter from a friend, our marriage certificate, and many pictures — pictures from our wedding, pictures with friends, celebrating Christmas and Thanksgiving together, and also pictures from our day-to-day life. But apparently, this was still not enough for USCIS. So when I received the RFE, I had to submit even more documents (as I mentioned in my previous comment).

congratulations 🎊

congratulations!!!

congratulations

@Rebecca A Congrats. How did you and your lawyer request for the extra copy of the RFE that was lost. And why do you think it took USCIS 2months to finally send another copy. Thanks
