Hi Guys!
I have a VAWA case that I applied in 2023. and I applied separately for my work permit in April 2025. I have not received anything from the USCIS only the receipt number telling me that my case has been received and sent to a different location. I have not received any biometrics request or any prima facie letter. would like to know if anyone else has this situation. I am a bit worried.
Thank you!
AnyUpdate NY FO (Update: Approved)
Has anyone received a decision update from the New York Field Office recently? I’ve seen some people getting medical RFEs or biometric appointments. Has anyone in a similar situation had any progress?

[VAWA] I-485 Interview: Answer from memory or look at forms?
Hi everyone,
For a VAWA-based I-485 interview, can I reference a copy of my forms while answering questions, or do I have to answer entirely from memory?
If I'm not allowed to look at any paperwork, should I ask my lawyer for copies of my I-360 and 1-485 right now so I can start reviewing and memorizing the timelines?
Would love to hear from anyone with experience. Thanks!

God is still God. Be patient and just believe. It shall be your turn soon. It is not over until it is over, don't give up!
Marriage based Green Card in 3 months (a family member, not me)
Thank God Almighty.
Married in November 2025 to U.S. citizen girlfriend, after being together for 5 years, inside the U.S.
On 21 March 2026, applied for adjustment of status.
On 17 June 2026, the interview went smoothly. Most of the questions were directed to U.S. citizen wife; he was only asked questions from the I-485 form.
On 19 June 2026, the I-485 was approved.
On 26 June 2026, the card is being produced.
PD Feb. 22 - My Interview has been scheduled
I became current this month and my P4 interview letter came today. I think I got it this quickly because since the retrogression, appointments at my embassy were drastically reduced so they were barely doing any interviews. So they probably have alot of appointment slots.
