VAWA based GREEN CARD APPROVED, NO INTERVIEW
Here's a quick summary of my journey. Jan 2020 - reached out to an attorney. He suggested applying for VAWA. For the next 3 years, I'd get a lot of EAD every year, sometimes with gaps which resulted in the employer laying me off due to no work authorization. I wasn't able to travel either until I finally received my travel permit I-131 in April 2022 which was valid for one year until April 2023. Mar 2023 - VAWA petition approved. Aug 2023 - I-485 RFE - medical exam Nov 2023 - Today I received an email from my lawyer with a photocopy of my green card. I checked MyUSCIS and it confirms that my I-485 was approved last week. This was my journey of about 4 years from the beginning of applying for VAWA until my green card was approved. There's another 5 years before that where I had to deal with USCIS, spouse, divorce, etc. that part was all done without a lawyer and I wish I had picked one sooner. After 9 years my struggle finally ends and I am a free person who can travel and see the world. It seems like my green card was approved without needing to do an interview. Good luck everyone, I'm out #vawa #ead #greencard
