Did he do any type of psychological or mental health assessment? 

No, it was so long ago, in the late 70s. They didn't really send kids to a psychologist. But he will definitely submit something with the RFE.

There is much more to it, I know you have a Lawyer but may be worth reading up on it, here is a good source: http://www.scottimmigration.net/content/i601memo

Our amazing lawyer already sent a preliminary response letter to accompany our additional evidence, and he took them to the wall! I couldn't have a more thorough or knowledgeable guy on our side. But thank you so much for the link and additional info. We have until June to respond.

We received a message today on our I-601 saying our status has changed and they will be mailing out a RFE letter . This process took 12 months and 1 day to receive a response. Hopefully, the RFE is straight forward. With the K1 visa and now the I-601 we been at it for 2 years.

Hi all

I am new to visa journey and have a few questions if anyone could help.

I filed my I 130 and was approved.

November 15th 2018 I filed my 601A waiver.

December 26th 2018 went for my biometrics.

currently waiting to get waiver approved and go back to my country for interview.

Hoping to get approved but I did overstay years ago, afraid if I go back for interview I will get denied and then am left sitting in my country.

am I safer to wait it out, until my husband becomes citizen, that way I won’t have to leave the country.

any suggestions appreciated😁

Adjusting in country has less risk.

As noted, adjusting status is lower risk adjudication-wise.

At the same time, if you are put into removal proceedings before you can file the I-485, then things become more complicated.

Not saying which one is better...just pointing out that both options have their risks.
