You may want ask MissLiss how she handled the denial of the I-601 in Ciudad Juarez. She got a lawyer, though. Apparently there's still something you can do, even if the waiver is denied, but I don't know how it works.

Unfortunately, MissLiss hasn't even filed the waiver. Her fiance was denied his visa at his first interview without being able to file the waiver. They told him he wasn't eligible to even file for a visa until 2008. They are doing an advisory opinion but it is to get the consulate to reconsider the visa decision, not the waiver decision. I know you can appeal the waiver decision but am not sure how to go about it. You may want to check out I2US. I know there are several people over there who's waivers have been denied. Someone there may be able to help you. Good luck and sorry about your bad news.

Just couldn't stay my @ss away!

Oh, okay. Thanks, clm.

Well, www.immigrate2us.net is probably your next stop, Mary. I believe that's the website where Laurel Scott posts (yes?), and she's a very well-known immigration attorney. I believe she specializes in cases requiring waivers and such.

I think Mary has already been down that route and has spoken with Ms. Scott.
