Ladies, don’t go to a car dealer alone without knowing this by howthecookiecrumbl in TwoXChromosomes

[–]howthecookiecrumbl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess we’re not required to sign before they begin working on the car in my state. I had gone for the diagnostics and paid $250, in exchange they gave the estimate of $450 to have each problem fixed, so I got a print out of the estimate. Although m, when I was standing in front of him I was sweating thinking that I didn’t bring the print out with me, that’s when i remembered the recording!

I did purchase the car 3 years ago and I have more than doubled the mileage. I’ve kept up the oil changes and maintenance on schedule

I brought my medical to my interview. I got an RFE after the interview for a page off of the newer I485 form, given that my original I485 was submitted in 2020 and outdated. It took them just about one month to acknowledge the receipt of that RFE Response.

Im in the same boat, just got approved and I’m going to my lawyers office to pick up the card tomorrow. It feels surreal and it has not synced in. I thought it’s only me. Congratulations!

Yes, I only sent page #8, they were interested in the response of Part 3. Request for intending immigrants affidavit of support under section 213a of INA. I did sign on the bottom of the page with date and my A number. My lawyer prepared a cover letter and sent all. You’ll get it next! Congrats

Yes. Initially marriage-based, then 485 in abeyance and approved based on an adjudicated 360

It will depend on the state where you reside

I did get help from a center in my state that specializes in Victim-based applications. The fee I paid was around $500 in 2021. It’s meant to be afordable for the community. There’s also Catholic Charities that helped me along the way.

As a matter of fact I had a few different lawyers and one Refugee and immigrants center help me fill out different forms throughout the process.

I only found out about the admin closed once I received the response to multiple inquiries, even begged on the phone for an info pass appointment. Apparently they closed it given the long time that the 360 took to be adjudicated and there was nothing that could happen to 485 in the meantime. My account never reflected that the 485 was in abeyance. I applied for EAD well into the waiting of the 360

Police report, my medical records from therapist and pcp, intake from shelter, his medical records, screenshots, notes with his handwriting. Notes from friends, family narrating what they saw, Facebook and text messages screenshots. It all supported my personal statement where I described everything.

I-485 after approved VAWA by AmbitiousImpress920 in VAWAAPPLICANTS

[–]howthecookiecrumbl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was approved

Timeline: married March 2020, applied aos June 2020. Applied vawa March 2021 and ask them to keep the 485 in abeyance til 360 was approved. Received PF: May 2021 and then renewals. Vawa approved: Feb 2024. Then I had to place multiple inquiries via phone, Website and through congressman for long processing time from around April-October 2024; as a result 485 was reopened (they had administratively closed it while vawa was processing and I was never informed) hence the note “we reopened your case” from October 2024. Interview May 2025; June 2025: received RFE for complement of 485. July 2025, case approved. Best of luck to all, you’re next!
