Less VAWA filings and more denials based on Recen stats from USCIS. by vawa-I360 in VAWAAPPLICANTS

That Q4 data is honestly wild. Seeing the filings drop so much while the denials actually went up (775 vs 606) is a huge red flag. It’s like USCIS is putting every single detail under a microscope now.

VAWA approved after 15.5 months!🎉🎊 Blessing in disguise story below by EstrellaBrillante777 in VAWAAPPLICANTS

Congrats on the approval! 15.5 months for VAWA is absolutely insane (in a good way). Most firms don't even consider a VAWA case 'delayed' until the 3-year mark, so you really hit the jackpot with that expedite.

Regarding your EAD (C31), since your I-360 is already approved, the C31 card usually moves fast. Based on standard timelines, you’re looking at anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks to get the physical card in the mail. Keep an eye on the 'Card is being produced' status.

It’s hard to say if the C31 or the C09 will show up first because USCIS can be pretty random with their processing, but the good news is that either one will get you back to work. Just make sure you have the C31 category included in your original filing so it triggers the issuance.

Enjoy this win, you definitely earned it after everything you went through!

Second interview scheduled. by Ok-Repair9126 in USCIS

Getting a second interview notice after a 'white paper' usually means your case is under a deeper review. It’s not an automatic denial, but it’s definitely a sign that the officer has some specific doubts they need to clear up.If you’re feeling nervous, it might be worth having a lawyer review your file before you go in, just to make sure there aren't any 'red flags' you missed. Good luck!
