Nattychic,

Immigrate2US.com has a good section also on waivers and such immigrate 2 us.com I'm not advocating for them, just has different information handled in a different light. Best wishes as we may/may not be in the same boat. Might also see about securing/sourcing a lawyer if the waiver will be complicated. Best wishes!

Bob

The whole thing is incredibly frustrating... you expect government workers to know what the hell they are doing, and it's disheartening when you find out that they make mistakes that have a huge effect on your case. I really sympathize with your situation right now- I had problems at the NVC with people not understanding their own regulations. Although I admit that yours is harder to deal with, since it's so close to the finish line sad.gif
