Is it taking so long to receive the NOA2 for our I-129 F & I-130 petitions b/c my husband EWI yrs ago? We were completely honest while completing the petitions, but now I'm worried b/c we haven't heard anything in 7 months. We thought the initial process was designed to verify that the marriage is legitimate and that a waiver could be filed later at the interview stage. Are we wrong to think this way? I miss my husband so much, and I don't understand the long delay, esp since others who filed after us are getting their approvals much sooner. Please respond if you have some idea about this. Thanks--Amor1

From My understanding the EWI form has to be filed in the beggining. I would assume that if a form was required they wouldn't wait 7 months to denie it or ask you for another form. I think under your case a lawyer would probably be a better choice just because of all the different possible outcomes of the EWI your going to face.
