Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York
I filed an i-485 through marriage in sept 2010 , but refiled an i-360 which was approved in jan/2012 . can i go to my i-485 hearing even though its for a marriage and not an i-485 through abused spouse ?if i go to my i-485 hearing without my spouse and show them the approved i-360 will they accept that and approve my adjustment of status or should i just reapply a new i-485 through abused spouse and repay the 1000+
my lawyer who i dont agree with is saying i can be put into deportation which i dont understand considering when i went to the interview the first time i told the interviewer that i was applying for vawa and to put the case on hold pending approval of i-360 she did and wrote something in passport saying pending
now i have got a letter for fingerprinting next month for the old i-485 i did in sept ... .. any help would be appreciated

Hello:
It would be hard to reconcile how you could have both at the same time.
