7 January 2022 PD - Approval - Writ of Mandamus Filed
I wanted to let anyone who sees this know that if you are beyond regular processing times and are financially in a place to afford such a large expense, don’t waste anymore time and file a Writ of Mandamus. I literally took advice from someone else on Reddit, a stranger, and I am so grateful and happy I did. So this is why I’m posting all of this, to hopefully help inform someone else that’s in a similar situation and help them find resolve and peace! From signing the contract, to having our I-130 and I-485 approved, it took a total of 22 days. Once USCIS received notifications from the US Attorney’s office, on a Monday, quite literally the next day, Tuesday, our case was approved. Additionally, the immigration office we are working with keeps our lawsuit open with the US Attorney until the Green Card is produced and delivered. The case won’t be closed until that happens. The immigration office we are working with (Hacking Immigration) charged $5k and the processing fees are $500 (government related). After trying to patiently wait for the Fairfax, Virginia FO to process our paperwork, we felt helpless and decided to go this route… 870 days later. Regarding our timeline down below - it’s all corrrct except for the RFE part. We received an RFE, but within minutes, we received another update not reflected in the timeline that stated the RFE was cancelled. Later we received the interview notification. This post is kind of all over the place, so lmk if you have any specific questions down below and I’ll try to help out where I can! #writ #writofmandamus #I-130 #I-485 #lawsuit

Hi guys, I hope you can guide me to a brighter understanding of my situation, Back on February 2023 when my visa category (f2a)was current on both charts my lawyer filled concurrently my I-360 I-485 I-131 I-765, so around April 24 USCIS rejected my package because it was filled to the wrong office(Vermont) so we needed to re file to Nebraska(now my category was not current), anyways USCIS set my priority date as February 16. On June 1st USCIS rejected my form I-485 for insufficient funds, this time I was really mad because this was the second time my lawyer messed up, I ask her what happened, she said that this was a USCIS mistake, I believed her and we submit again the package with the corresponding filling fees and a letter explaining USCIS that at funds were available at all times and they should honored my priority date, I am not sure if they did it or not, since in any of my notifications I can see my priority date. Several months passed, on November 11 my lawyer notified me that I had biometrics appointment on November 22nd for my I-485(code 3), I went to the ASC, everything went smooth and with no issues, couple days after the system updated to Fingerprints were applied to my I-131 and I-485; form I-360 and I-765 did not show any updates, it started to seem weird since we filled them concurrently and were supposed to be updated together (for what I knew at that time), so I asked my lawyer, she just said that it was matter of time until they update them, so I waited patiently until March 28th when I finally decide to attend to her office to collect all my notifications and found out that she did not notified me about other biometric appointment on November 30th. I feel really disappointed about her and hopeless, I already wrote a letter to the Vawa office explaining my situation, and the only concern I have is, Will they use my I-485 fingerprints for my form I-360, or will they just close my case? as today they did not close it yet. and finally Will they still adjudicate my I-131 and I-485? Or Will they just wait until my Vawa approval to finally adjudicate them? Thanks, #vawa #I-485 #I-131 #I-765 #adjusmentofstatus
