Is your question: should I use money on a lawyer? (answer: probably not)

Or: should I listen to a lawyer? (answer: maybe)

Can you explain more about what your problem is? Or potential problem?

hi-

I'm not sure is a law, he signed so us citizens spouses can stay in usa during the process, and get the waiver aproved and go to the their country just to get the visa. I read at uscis page thats not aproved yet. but some lawyers are telling people is for sure and promised they wont go to their countries.

You are correct, the new wavier program has not been activated yet.

I-601 Provisional Waiver Is Not in Effect http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=e954bb09ef4a5310VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=e7801c2c9be44210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD

USCIS is considering changes that would allow certain immediate relatives (the spouse, children or parents of a U.S. citizen) who can demonstrate extreme hardship to a U.S. citizen spouse or parent to receive a provisional waiver of the unlawful presence bars before leaving the United States.

These procedures are not in effect and will not be available to potential applicants until USCIS publishes a final rule in the Federal Register specifying the effective date. USCIS plans to publish a notice of proposed rulemaking in the coming months and will consider all comments received as part of that process before publishing a final rule.

Do not send an application requesting a provisional waiver at this time. USCIS will reject any application requesting this new process and we will return the application package and any related fees to the applicant. USCIS cannot accept applications until a final rule is issued and the process change becomes effective.

Be aware that some unauthorized practitioners of immigration law may wrongly claim they can currently file a provisional waiver application (Form I-601) for you. These same individuals may ask you to pay them to file such forms although the process is not yet in place. Please avoid such scams. USCIS wants you to learn the facts about protecting yourself and your family against scammers by visiting uscis.gov/avoidscams.

If you already have an immigrant visa interview with the U.S. Department of State, we strongly encourage you to attend. The Department of State may cancel your immigrant visa registration if you fail to appear at this interview.

They need to fire their lawyers, because they can not read nor understand the English language.

La nueva regla que Obama propuso todavia NO ESTA EN EFECTO. Mi abogada me dijo que no saben si la van a poner manana o el siguiente año, y me dijo que podria esperar si queria, pero que no sabian la fecha ni tampoco creo que estan 100% seguros de que se va a implantar. No creo que los abogados deban "prometer" esto si no hay reglas sobre el asunto todavia.

In January 2012, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced

that new procedures were under consideration for some I-601 waiver applications.

These new procedures will be limited to immediate relatives of U.S. citizens

(spouse, children, and parent).

The new procedures will not apply to family-sponsored preference visa categories.

I-601 Provisional Waiver Procedures are not in effect.
