I-601 HELP! At NVC stage awaiting interview.

[ShirahBet 42]

So after we have our interview in Montreal and it is determined we will need a waiver and the waiver is approved will we have to go back to Montreal? Refile another I-864?? Or will he be granted permission to enter the U.S??

I'm totally less knowledgeable about a waiver for criminal activity, and what would trigger that. So I don't feel super qualified to tell you how to proceed.

What I can tell you is that if he is deemed to be inadmissible, they will let him know, then you file the waiver at the lockbox in Arizona. From there, it's a waiting game. But there's definitely more support and resources at immigrate2us.net

After waiver is sent if approved B4 6 mths (only if backlog changes) they

request U drop off PP for visa issuance....if approved waiver after 6 mths past

a new medical, & police record is requested in an instruction letter, some

consulates will also ask for new tax papers if its after April & mini interview again

then issue the visa after

I had my interview back in sep2013 and I was asked to submit i601 now almost five months and have not received any notice only noa 10/07/2013 so how long more am I waiting for my approval and someone said we can contact congressman and or who???? How we do that???? My husband lives in Texas and I'm in cdj waiting on approval

[Jawaree 718]

Call his congressperson or his senator in Tx, they have him sign an authorization to get info

on the case and please note all they can get is info on status they cannot influence approvals

its tooo early to do an e-request March - April U may be able to , they are working on May June July 13

Some ppl have been waiting past 10 mths...U can sign up at uscis website with the LIN #s that

NSC sent to U and you will get updates by text or emails.....@ Diva1209

You are still within normal processing time right now. You can contact your congressman, but they will tell you that. You can submit an erequest once you are outside of processing times... I filed at the end of July and only received notification 2 weeks ago, so you've got a little time.

My husband had a I-192 waiver before we were married. The waiver was for 212(a)(2)(A)(i)(I) under Immigration and Nationality Act. It expired June 2013. Now we have his Visa Interview in Montreal May 21,2014. We have waited over a year. Are they going to tell us that he needs another waiver, the I-610? Does he really need to go through this whole process again to have the same charges waived again?? This just seems ridiculous.

I 601 processing times as of last week USCIS listed they R processing July 2nd....no longer 4

mths, it will now take/is taking 5-8 mths for the ppl waiting , even a few has reached 10 mths....so

far no one has reported an expedite accepted at a consulate since the lockbox has been the place

to file...I say if U feel U will need a waiver verify with your lawyer and prepare one ahead of time,

so if its needed on the day of interview U can overnite it to lockbox as U will need a copy of the

221G the consulate gives U approving U to file waiver.....an expediate letter can be sent with

package however thats a life a death situation with evidences...no Senator or Congressperson

can speed up process. they.just inform U of status of application. Its not a DIY thing U need to

show Y U should be allow back and hardships to the USC, along with evidences

My husband has his interview May 21 in Montreal. I am pretty sure they are going to tell him he needs a waiver for CIMT. My question is since he previously had a I-194 waiver for the same inadmissibility will that make a difference in the processing time? I mean they already waived it once why wouldn't they again?? Plus the incident happened 17 years ago.
