trying to find out waiver status or how long it takes

[ellestar723 0]

Hi. I am hoping someone can help me. I had submitted both the I-601 waiver and I-212 waiver thru Montreal. They forwarded it on May 7th. I am trying to find out who they forwarded it to, they only communicate thur email and I am still waiting for a response. I am trying to check on the status. Does anyone who they forward it to. Also, does any know what the chances are for them approving waivers. My wife tried showing extreme hardship, but I am still wondering how likely they are to grant me this waiver. Any help would be appreicated. Thanks Al

Montreal sucks. They send waivers through Vermont who takes anywhere from 10-18 months to process. Most typically we've seen it take 13 months.

Vermont is the USCIS Service Center in Vermont. You will possibly get a receipt from them in the next three months and can track it online on the website. If one gets approved, the other one will be as well.

I agree with PB and Jam, immigrate2us.net is where you want to go for better info on waivers. I can't answer your question, but I've seen questions a lot before on this subject at immigrate. Tracy

You will get a Notice Of Action (NOA) and the EAC number can be use for tracking but it is totally useless since updates are not available for (I-601 and/or I-????, the only time you will get an update is when they are done and you are sent a notice of their findings. Our waiver was sent in February 2008 and the approval e-mail was received from CRIS on February 17, 2009, on February 23, 2009 the approval letter was received from Vermont then on February 23, 2009 the packet received from Montreal

Even though the visa was denied on 2007-08-09 it took until February 2008 to mail due to many issues that needed attention.

And now 5 months later everything is done and sent to Montreal, it is again sit and wait time

p.s. asking Montreal about your I-601 will do you no good

Pls can you post if you recived the waiver response as I have submitted in July/2008 was told will take 3 Months never happened. No reciet # to trace the status also. And now they do the post on there web site (uscis) saying 601 takes 4 Months. Its is a Year Now hopefully someone could find the answer as the Montreal Consulate Office do not response to email efficently. Take Care
