When my lawyer prepared my waiver he said processing time about 6 months...After 6 months he finally sent my waiver in early August, 2018. Processing time was 6-8 months than. After couple of months processing time changed for 6,5-8,5 months. He spoke with USCIS in middle of February, they said waiver assigned by officer and answer will be in 60 days..

Two weeks ago he sent inquiry...After couple of days USCIS set up back the time again and processing time 8,5 -10,5 months now. Today they said they need other 60 days...

I exhausted...it is endless waiting for me..😭😭😭

You are not alone, we are all in this together.  I had my hopes up for it being done by this month in time for our anniversary. All we can do is take it one day at a time.

Update: 

Today, I received email from my lawyer 's paralegal...USCIS said, my waiver is under pending adjudication...

They didn't give us timeframes..

Can I think positive or more afraid?

Anybody received similar answer for inquiry?

Spoler same thing happened to my husbands case ours took about 14 months but in November my lawyer submitted an inquiry about why it was taking so long they sent the same reply and we got our approval in February. I think they send it to buy themselves more time. Keep your head up it’s almost over.

Yes that happened to me on my previous case. Just like Michigan248 said that they are buying time but in the end I also got my approval as well. So, you will most likely get your approval.. I hope it won't take more..

I hear you! I honestly cried when the processing times checker went back 3 months. Emotionally has been really hard and have to focus on other things than that ha been tough!!! I am so thankful for this thread! 🍀

Yes I feel the same way. I wish I had someone to talk to when you just feel like it’s never going to end. I don’t like to talk to my hubby I know he’s also very stressed about it. It’s so nice to have a forum to search and get info from people who are going through the same thing.

Absolutely! I've been checking back here almost everyday now that I am towards the "end" of our supposed waiting period.  Thankful for this forum.  I wish you all the best of luck and success. I too hate to talk about this with my hubby, I  know he is extremely anxious about this whole thing, coupled with the fact that if we are successful, he will finally be hugging his parents again for the first time in 20 years.  So much pressure on us, you know?

Hello,

I wanted to start a new thread for those of us who just sent in our i60a Wavier packet in 2018. I just received our receipt notice today 3/1 and our case is in the Nebraska Service Center. I have read on other threads that this is something new for 2018? I wish everyone luck and hopefully we can move on to the next part quickly!!!😉😀
