new here and desperate I-601 waiver

[want2gohome 0]

Hello everyone, my name is Edgar and im in the process of my I-601 waiver approval. short description of case.

Entered the US when i was nine years old, i am now 26. No criminal record.

Married wife 3 years ago.Had our first and only son on jan 12 2012.

Ciudad juarez appointment was september 14. Was denied and gave me 601 waiver form. Waiver form was received on october 26. Havent had any news since then. I guess im just here writting this because im going crazy without any news and im just seeking words of hope from you that are going through this or went through this. Its torture living without my family, especially my son. I missed so much of his life already, i missed his first bday,christmas, his first words, his first steps, pretty much his first everything.I feel like he probably doesnt even remember me and will not recognize me when i get to see him again. Ofcourse i also miss my wife so much, shes my best friend and is having such a bad time with this. Bills, bills, bills, lonelyness etc, but regardless im very proud of her for trying her best. Also im a dog person and my dog and i were very close and i know some of you probably dont understand the bond you grow to have with your dog but i had a very strong one with my dog. He probably thinks i abandoned him and he recently got attack by an offleash dog and i feel awful for not being able to be there for him.

Then recently i checked my status online and said something about a 35-45 day delay?.Is going online the only way to check status? how will i know when im approved, from what i understood reading online the 35-45 day delay is for the online status because they are too busy updating the site?

so yea im just looking for you guys view and opinion. feel free to ask any questions

i checked and yes it was sent to a lockbox

I was under the impression that lockbox filings were fairly quick, it has only been 5 months but you would have been one of the early ones.

well it took about 3 weeks after my appointment on sep 14 for my atty and wife to gather needed info, on the website it says they received my waiver on october 26. Yes there was letters from my wife, friends,phycologist..etc im just worried because my medical exams are almost at the 6 month expired date and that just means more money to spend which ive already spent a butt load of.

Im kinda mad at myself because i was eligeble for the dream act and i thought to myself back then maybe i should get the two year permit and i was sure that a law would pass within those 2 years where i could stay in the country and thats what happened

I know exactly what you mean, I could have done the same thing, but like you, now I must wait....although, you might get a faster respond than me because the NSC received my waiver on12/12/12. So, I am still waiting....

I feel like ive been waiting for years now. Its hell here for me.. i just hope i get response very soon because i dont want to have to go back to ciudad juarez for more medical exams, ive spent enough i think lol.

What part of mexico are you waiting at?

[OscarIreiely2011 0]

I know exactly what you mean...it's soo expensive to be here, I've never been in Mexico, after my parents took me to the US, I've never been back, and I was only 2 years old at the time, I'm waiting in Monterrey, which is my husband's original home city, I'm staying with the in laws, but I was born in Acapulco, regardless everything is very foreign to me...I hate being away from my babies and my husband,....I, too, just want to go home...

I left mexico when i was 8 and hadnt been back since then either. So everything def seemed foreign to me aswell. On top of that i have to deal with a father that i didnt want to see ever again lol, hes the reason i left in the first place which im thankfull for because to me the US is my home. Being away from the kids is def the hardest though and its not like you can bring them here, i mean you can but life here is too crazy and i wouldnt want my baby living here. Too much violence, poverty etc. I hope you get back to your babies and husband soon.
