Wait long time since 2021
Does anyone know how much longer I am waiting for? My VAWA was approved Oct 2024, submitted my biometrics and medical July 2025, and waiting since then. I sent e request Uscis basically responded they need more time to process. I've been going through so much.

@Don't lose hope my vawa was approved September 2024 and they received my medical March 5, 2025, I am also still waiting and can't get a good answer each time I call. its ridiculous, we have been through so much and still has no freedom. My c31 work permit expires in sept then I'll be out of a job, lawyer applied for renewal in March. I dnt even know when am going to get receipt notice bcuz everything is taking forever and no more automatic extension. Am so stressed out.

@Love ❤️ I recently got fired because of the stress. I can't maintain a good job with this. I don't know where I will live or if I can afford living here.

I’ve been waiting since 2021. Vawa approved July 2024 after tired of waiting I send out an enquiry with my congressman, we got a response 18 days after saying my i485 is on paused because I didn’t reponded to a rfe back in 2021! the rfe was for me to File the i360 and send proof of the receipt which I did! so now me and my lawyer put all evidence together send medical and hoping for the best!
fifi fifiApr 17, 2026
@sandy sand that is awesome I’m sure you will get approved soon, my vawa has been approved since march 2024 , and I did 5 inquiries and the response was they still reviewing my case . and still waiting
